How can one find work there? Online all I see are senior positions.

There are no roughneck or whatever openings available, the only ones are for warehouse management which apparently pays 8 pounds an hour and on-shore (which is fine if I get free accomodations or some shitty jewish one where you still pay 20pounds a month).

Help me before I live in the streets

The oil industry in the U.S. is in the middle of a boom. Some projections have the U.S. becoming the #1 oil producing nation in the world by 2020.

Not only are the jobs plentiful but they offer very high pay in very short time starting with little to no experience if you are willing to adapt to a very different lifestyle.

The average oil worker in 2012 made $99,000. Average pay with less than one year experience was $66,000. Offshore workers make even more per equivalent job.

In addition to pay many of the jobs are equal time on/off rotations meaning you are off for nearly half the year. Common is 2 weeks on 2 weeks of, 21 days on/off, or 28 days on/off.

Someone with no college degree but good work ethic can easily climb above $100,000 per year in income in less than 5 years. In fact that is essentially the norm. Making over $120,000 per year with just a high school diploma before the age of 35 years old is extremely common.

A degree holder and technically minded individual with some blue collar common sense will be making over $120k per year within 3-4 years starting with no experience in something like MWD (measurement while drilling).

Downsides? Relatively harsh working environment. 12hr days. Working with lots of rough types, rednecks, etc.
