Psht I'd take any mancamp, I've lived in a 3rd world country for 10 years .

Can't find none though, plus all I hear now is it's getting harder and harder to get an oil job, I could probably do something else service related, apprentice for a skilled trade maybe, still the problem of housing remains.

Lucky person....You have lucked out a gotten a Sweet N.D. lady as a roommate. I loved when I did disaster work, and volunteers from all over the U.S. would come....the folks they were helping would cook big meals, pastries...good old fashioned neighborly folks. That's what N.D. is made of. You must be good people for folks to reach out like that....Good for you.
