Hey fellow operators, owners, dispatchers and such. This is my first time post a message on here so bear with me. This July will make 10 years in the pumping industry for me. Unfortunatly last Thursday was a reality check for me. I alway felt like I had pretty good job security but the rug was pulled out from underneath me. My company decided to close my location. Didn't think it would happen to me.(more like hoped it wouldn't) One more down due to this economy. Value your jobs today, cause you might not have one tomorrow.

I prognosticate (look it up) a MAJOR reorginization/realignment very soon on the horizon.

Anybody else with me?   Pumpco was the first (well, second -Lucht's)

Hang on tight, it's gonna be a bumpy ride!!!!

Any other locations hit today?
