I being looking everywher online. I need real help.
I have a child to support, I'm 21 years old, and I'm tired of working in Retail making $8.00 an hour.
I'm looking for a full time job, with a lot of overtime in the Oil fields in Texas.
I will need housing at least for the first month.

Midland is booming big, but hard to find housing. Trailer cities have popped up.

Go on Indeed and search oilfield or oil jobs around your area. You should be able to find a lot of positions on there. Craigslist could be another good shot to try. All check company websites like Halliburton, Weatherford etc. Don't bother with Rigzone at all to be honest. 99.1% of the jobs posted on there are for experienced people.

Actually it's 99.9% - so if you are not experienced do not waste their time. Drivers MUST have CDL's.

I'm in the same boat! Sorta. My husband was actually just laid off from Nabors out of East Tx. He has a year experience working as a floorhand & would be willing to travel anywhere - in tx, ok, or la preferably. We've submitted several apps online, but I'm just worried that everyone is stacking out & he won't be able to find another job in the industry he loves.
