    *yawn* My daddy plays with oil in foreign countries!

    Yay! My dad arrived to Dubai, United Arab Emirates a couple of days ago to start his new great job as the international oil parts salesman of the middle east! This is a great thing for him because like for 30 years he had been in the oil field industry, he had done international work for Central america and such but left the oil field when the crash happened in the late 90's. Just a year ago he was an assistant manager at a home depot, and now he's doing what he does best, making a crud load of money just by being a rough neck! =D!
    I'm going to go to Dubai next summer on Vacation, so I'm totally stoked about it.

    What's your daddy do?!

    (btw, my entire family is oil field related and have been since the day I was born, so any anti-oil or "He's only over there for the oil" comments I will personally call out and correct you. )

    [EDIT] I wanna see this~

    He's retired but he climbed to the dizzy heights of being in charge of a good 50 or so branches of HSBC bank before doing so.

    Dude! Like when I was 4, we moved to this town who was basically taken over by the oil field because it was ripe for the oil reaping and my dad's told me that when we would go shopping that there would be people who would refuse to check us out if he was wearing his work clothes, so we'd have to go to another checkout person for help. People can be viscious! Then when I lived back in Texas, people were causing problems and stealing the trailers to carry the rig parts in attempts to stop rigs from going up, and this was like 4 months ago!

    Oil, heh ? What does he think about the Peak Oil theory (that says oil will be scarce soon) ?

    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    speaking of playing with oil, my daddy and I used to love to play this little game called Oil Baron that came on a cd full of shareware/freeware games. I would always make extra characters that I said we could use to help us both out and invariably make that character only help me out 8) I can persuade my daddy to many things!

    My daddy fixes people's heaters and air conditioners. Therefore he provides a very great service, especially in January and especially in July and August.

    My dad works at a bucket factory. I think his official title is Manager of I Hate All You Guys Seriously. He really doesn't like his job.
