During my time working on the Oil Rig I learned various valuable qualities. Extremely
long hours and very strenuous work being the main ones. I was putting in 15 hour
days on average. Thus, how I was able to acquire a taste for such strenuous work.
Unfortunately I was not able to continue my college education while working these
hours, and while living in Vernal.
