    Nah I've been working like 10 months straight. Just got off a job 2 weeks ago so I'm enjoying a little bit of downtown before I go looking for another shutdown.

    Meh. At power plants , I make the same money the average lower middle income other people make. I just make it in 6-8 months rather than a year. But I have to save and try to budget to live during the downtime between jobs. It's not really as baller money as people think.

    Refineries do make good money but more dangerous

    I've heard Austin is the place if you like outdoorsy stuff.

    Wife and I used to go hiking regularly back you know where! ;)

    No hiking here in Katy...:rofl:

    Biggest hill I've seen is the one the cows stand on on my way home. o_O

    Y'all need a fucking loop. That's the only problem with Austin roads and traffic.

    Houston area is very well kept! Roads are clean, and well paved. IMHO.

    Well, I graduated two weeks ago as well as my internship ending, had a phone interview two days ago, and have an interview in person with that company this coming Tuesday (it's looking pretty promising though)! I'm hoping for a start-date around July or August (maybe take a trip out West in the meantime!) already have a week and a half planned in Colorado at the end of June with some of my family. I can't complain about the unemployed life at the moment!
