How many Coli brehs/brehettes really making $100K?
- Thread starter mamba
- Start date
but you get's hands on the job...unless you don't already work in Network engineering?
if that's the case look into GNS3 or invest in lab equipment....ebay
BlvdBrawler
Superstar
I still can't tell if you WakeUpNow dudes are trolling or not.
Oh, yeah breh. I'm in the process now of trying to start another business. Had some money issues that came up with my car, and an uninsured hospital stay that took a huge chunk of funds that were set aside but a breh is most definitely working on some things. As soon as I get off work, I go home or the library here at Depaul and research, research, research. I actually have to go buy another laptop today after work because my board burned out on me last night.

I would look at a job in Cementing, land or offshore.
Halliburton seems to always need cementers check with them first.
I you are going to have to put in work, and you won't be making six figures off top, but if you looking I would start there
100k
I've thought about that industry for awhile. My father's college buddy works from a company that is doing work on a rig in Corpus Christi. If you have any information to help get my foot in the door, I'd gladly accept it breh.
Anyone interested in the oilfield should look at possible job opportunities like this
Majors
Chevron
Exxon
BP
Shell
These companies are involved with exploration and production. They tend to hire people with specialized degrees like petroleum engineers, geophysics, and ITservices
Service Companies
Halliburton
Schulemberger
Baker Hughes
These companies offer specialized services to the majors. Directional Drilling, MWD/LWD, Mud logging, Consulting, Cementing services and the list goes on and on
If you have a degree in anything, or and military service I would look at these types of companies. If they feel they can train you, they will offer you a job.
Drilling Contractors
Transocean
Ensco
Diamond
These are the companies the majors hire to provide personnel and equipment needed to drill a well.
If you don't have a degree or specialized training I would start with them. You will start out as a roustabout or floor hand, but you can move up quiclky and still make around 60k starting out.
Too bad im lazy as sh!t....i collect disability so i dont know about all that...i need to be in charge i never want to take orders again
Christmas season aint even hear yet either.
Lazy nope. I work in a hospital not CVS or Walgreens.
My day consists of processing hospital orders, dealing with bytch nurses that don't know shyt about medications, adjusting antibiotic doses, monitoring labs for antibiotic and anticoagulants, really dosing medications, making sure doctors prescribe the appropriate medications from a clinical and cost effective stand point, switching mess from IV to PO, operational tasks like medication inventory, and asking any drug related questions from doctors and nurses.

to you though if you really doing your job
I broke $100k when I was 22. I had a consulting management company I started in college at USC during my physical therapy from ball and I met my business partner. I was already years deep into investments, promotions and management. Everything came together as far as assets at 22 and took off within that year.
Then my fiancé was killed, I killed dude. After retaining a a top fed attorney for my state case, carrying a mortgage for a new condo I never even got a chance to move into and couldn't sell because it was in the middle of the recession and subsequently selling at a loss and using my savings to clear it as to not declare bankruptcy, plus a previous business lawsuit I settled while I was locked up for a contract issue from the previous year, losing another lawsuit against Allstate for not covering my car getting stolen and taking care of my fiance's mom's hospital bills etc....shyt was all types of bad. All that basically broke me but my lawyer got me a decent sentence. Was locked up from 2007-2012, came home and had about $10k left over and couldnt find a job for a year. Can't work in finance anymore. Hell, can't work for corporate in general anymore with a conviction in my file now, let alone a violent one. I was gone too long to use my LA or Atlanta connects to tie down a position of merit. A friend of mine who used to work for me is a VP at an investment firm, got me in off the strength of my resume but during the background check, his boss said "Your quals are great but I'm very disappointed that we can't keep you on. The board sees you as a liability regarding our transparency with current and potential investors." blah blah blah.
I decided to get into social work with AA/NA because of how it affected my life. A drunk driver took my family's life and had someone been there to keep that man sober somehow, then no one's lives wouldve been damaged by his actions. I chose to be someone that helps these addicts and drunks in the community that they tear apart. I tell them all the time, "I'm not like everyone else in this field. I'm not here for you. I don't give a shyt about you, I don't care about your life. I'm here to help the people's lives you affect and destroy. And if helping you will save lives, then I will help you as best as I can." I'm the Administrator for an organization on the Southside of Chicago. I make shyt here, about $33k before taxes. I work directly under the owner/director and he ain't shyt. I'm kinda stuck here because the job runs me ragged and looking for a job when you already work a 9-5 is damn near impossible.
Its hard to be where I am, coming from where I was. My family and my girl having a few issues that I couldve easily made better in the past. Or worse, having things fall apart because of what I feel is my ineptitude. It isnt. It's just my pride making me feel the pains of my ungraceful fall from grandeur. I went from a wunderkind at 21 with the experience and network of someone 10-12yrs my senior and just as I started to see the real fruits of my labor and sacrifices, my prime years of securing my future were spent in a corrupt judicial system when I was needed most. I had so much responsibility to the people in my life. Having succeeded so early makes the time and circumstances that were taken from me THAT much more disheartening when I compare it to where I am now and my lowered trajectory in life. I'm seeking a new route to security and in the process of finding my potential again. I know its there by how unsatisfied I am by my current situation. I believe you never LOSE potential, you may just LOSE SIGHT of it but it's always there. You can feel it. People that didn't know me before, say "I can tell you are going somewhere. You have so much potential etc" I just say thank you with a smile but its bitter because all I'm thinking is "If you only knew. I've been to 'where I was going' and back already. You are just seeing the rematch."
So nah, I'm not in the $100k club anymore, I make a third of that now and shyt sucks.
Should of moved to the A bra, half the black dudes working in finance got something on they record. They just run ish so they can get away with it
