Good Grief...

Well the fun and adventure they call working offshore continues... Would it be correct to call this the next adventure, or the next saga, or just a chapter in one of those...

After the debacle of getting to Sao Paolo yeaterday, and from there on to Florionopolis, and then to wherever the hell I am, guess what.....

I'm not on the frigg'in flight list to go to the rig.....#$&%^%*&$%

So, they searched my bag, did all the paperwork, and took my stuff back with the others... Then...Then... they tell me I have to wait until tomorrow to fly out.... WTF... ok whatever....Give me my $%&$%^@%% bags back.... no, they are secured... we'll just hold them... Like hell you will, I will climb over this counter... and I will go to jail, but not until after you guys.... 3 of them are headed for a hospital... When...IF ??? I ever get to the rig, the letter I'm working on will curl some toes... and I am not pulling any punches.... I've had it with this BS...Fly 1/3rd of the way around the world and put up with this BS...

45 minutes later... oh wait, we have no flights tomorrow.... so maybe Thursday.... So.... I'm stuck in a POS hotel in some town that I don't ever know the name of... til God knows when....

I give up... just gonna roll with the flow...but the letter is still being written and will be dlivered to those that it should matter to....

So, after I go eat, any body that wants to visit, I'm here...
