Living In Interesting Times

I had hoped (and fully expected) to come on shift and enjoy a quiet and restful 12 hours before departing the rig. But this was not meant to be when a simple operation went to rat $h1t and we encountered some totally unexpected problems. For the last 4 hours I've had my eyes glued to the computer screen and my ear pressed to a phone while I fed information to the drill floor and the company man.

I have to admit that it made me feel quite important, and my humdrum spreadsheet has turned into a report of epic proportions. Now I just have to find someone to read it and agree with my summation, and then I can go back to slouching.

Days left = ZERO!
