Right guys I know that there are a few of you in here who do this for a living in all sorts of differing departments which ever they may be, I would really like to see about getting a job offshore been wanting to do so for ages and ages!! (Alan knows this already) I am just fed up with working where I am currently, working my a$$ off for what I consider to be peanuts, I'd much rather be working my a$$ off for decent wages on a rig or something and also get the chance to get decent holidays along with it. I mean I am not afraid of doing hard work, I consider myself to be fit and healthy and just need to know how to get my foot in the door?
The thing is that I just don't know where to start looking? I've looked a lot on the net and the majority of sites want you to down load there book/info for $30/£30 etc etc to get the info on how and where to look for these jobs. No way am I doing that. Theres so many different places and just dont know which ones would be legitimate and which ones aren't.
The only thing that I have that might help me is that I am a qualified motor mechanic even tho it's been 14 years now since I left the mechanics trade, but they reckon you dont necessarily need any experience to get a job offshore, an entry level job will do me, at least I would have my foot in the door so to speak and could then work my way up, I am prepared to do anything :yes nod:. I just hope my age won't go against me either, im no youngster anymore (38)
If any of you guys have any contacts or info that may help me, it would be very much appreciated guys, very much so.
Thank you guys :thumbs up:
