I flew the H60 that landed on the oil rig in that movie. I got to meet and fly Bruce Willis, Jerry Bruckhimer, Steve Buschemi (sp?), Will Patton, Michael Bay, that monster of a human being Michael Duncan Clark, and that sorry excuse of an actor, Ben Afleck. Got to see Liv Tyler close up, yowza!!! We flew out of Galveston, 140 miles to that rig. I forget the name of the rig, but it was barely big enough to fit us and the PHI helicopter. Pretty wild experience, all in all. My hat's off to all you guys who work on any of those rigs.

Alot of you guys have some badass jobs.

Im a Certified Welder/Cast Iron Repair tech at Lock N Stitch. This is the company that produces the inserts that Ford just picked up for spark plug fixes(Which are the best BTW). We travel every so often, pretty much any where you can think of. Been to an oil rig off the coast of China, to a power plant in Maui, and a few places here in the states.

Im also working on my Bachelors Degree in Business Management.

I'm 1 of 4 sales managers at YearOne. It's a really cool place to work the majority of the time... pay could definitely be better! Halfway looking for something new with better pay.. this job has its perks though.

So uh, can you hook a brother up with some discounts from Year One? Me and my dad are building his 68 Roadrunner. :beer::beer:
