"Stay in school, or you’ll end up like him." This is what a teacher told her elementary school class as they walked past my dad, who was in the middle of pumping out their lift station. The pumps had burned up, and my dad and his pump truck were the only things preventing sewage from overflowing. The pumps were on backorder, so my dad ended up babysitting that lift station for about six weeks. In those 6 weeks, my dad made about $36,000, which would have taken that teacher 32 weeks to earn. You might not want to be so quick to judge people, especially if they’re out there trying to make an honest living." Credit: brave minds

Imagine 6 foot 6 at 245. That would be a scrawny guy by today’s metrics. Our white ancestors literally starved to build this country.

If these guys actually worked hard, they wouldn’t be so fat

Most power isn’t aesthetic. Sleeper builds are definitely a thing.

Not a oil rig. Post drilling work. More than likely sucker pipe for the pump

I notice there are no women clawing at each other to get these jobs - or blacks.

That’s a tough SOB, if his dad would’ve bought him a football for his 10th birthday instead of a craftsman wrench set, he would be playing tackle for Nebraska Cornhuskers on Saturday’s. Either way. I want to work or play next to him, because shits gonna get done.

Production well work is the dirtiest job I ever had. Coated with oil, in 110 deg heat!

They are cleaning and servicing a 'nodding donkey' (pumpjack). A mechanical device used to extract oil from onshore wells. They feature a nodding motion that operates a submersible pump deep within the well, bringing oil to the surface when reservoir pressure isn't sufficient.

At first, he looks like a fat beer-gut guy that we assume is clumsy. But it turns out he has strength, precision, and agility like a ballet dancer when it comes to working the oil pipes. Never judge a book by its cover.

I wonder why women aren't calling to have equal representation in a job like this 🤔
