We went to the Gonzales yard before the Holidays and there was a trailer sitting there taking up one of the w/e/s spots. They were gone for a few weeks. Also while sitting at the yard there were guards there that were waiting on certain job or rigs. Once we were offfered a job with EOG, which we have had a bad experience with. I told DH, i don't want their gate, but then again if that is all there is, we need to take it. I did not want to sit at the yard and turn down gates. By the time he got back to JR, there was a Petro-Hawk gate that came up. Low and behold, we took their gate and got kicked off of it 10 days later. When you get as many guards as GGS has, there is always people who take advantage of the good things. Not all gate guards are angels, like most of us. For us we are not going to sit in one of their yards and take time off to rest or have fun. While i was healing from hand surgery last Dec 2010, we went to a recreational park to stay for a while. Unless you walk a mile in their shoes, you will not know what is going on. Guess everyone knows by now that there is two sides to a board, lets turn the board over and see what the other side has to offer. When we got kicked off of the Perto-Hawk gate, we thought we were the perfect guards. A lady came in one night at midnight. DH, got her ****off by asking her to move her vehicle over so he would not have to walk in the mud. She started yelling out all kinds of nasty language. She also told him she had a friend on the rig that she was going to talk to. Patterson rig,it was. The next day it was told to GGS,that DH, gave her a cussing. And they wanted us replaced. Guess what! We did not get to state our case, it was a one sided board. Fair! I don't think so. I hope we can stick together and help each other out, when needed. Most of us are baby-boomers and was raised by good standards. Sure would be nice to have a lady day out, around Karnes City & Kenedy. Anyone interested ?
