Spooled,
No offense to you or any of the other guys that posted regarding the lifestyle, but what did you expect?
I find it hard to believe that folks have actually ventured into this career path without doing their homework.
Either way, you either love the lifestyle or you hate it (and then you got the guys that have been in it for 20-30years and they just tolerate it). Typically you find out in the first 90 days whether or not this is for you. I just don't understand how there are folks that it takes them months, even years to figure out this is not what they want.
Oh well, best of luck all the same to you guys.
