"If you like to know what your schedule is a month in advance, the frac world probably won't fit your lifestyle"
At most fractionals, with the 7 on/7 off schedule, you can know your schedule forever in advance. You might not know where you're going in those 7 days, but you know which 7 you're working and which 7 you have off. At a regional or somewhere the schedule is bid, you don't know your schedule for the next month until a set date the month before.
