So the rig went to an area where camp is needed... first of all the food is nothing but shitty carbs ... one steak night a week but the rest is nothing but f*****g carbs F*CK! Next i was told that there was a gym there so im thinking thats wicked...turns out the gym is a f*****g bow flex F*CK! F*****G cheap ass oil companies...Makes me sick!!!!!!!!! Luckily they had no clue what pinkies really are so when they tossed my room i told them that they were amino acids .....ha ha ha ha Morons :D

No, someone would die if they did. The thing that also sucks is there is virtually no communication to the outside world. No internet, sat. phones are now pretty much useless and a GOOD camp may have t.v., 1 or 2 channels. Weight rooms seem to be catching on in some of the camps, but for the most part they are pretty shitty. And food, like you said, carbs, carbs and more carbs. Done shifts where salad's were my mainstay.
Jesus, dont know how you guys do it. Id love to see pics of the areas you work in, and what these camps really look like, if a camera is available?

This is the only pic i have, no indoor pics. As you can see there is a sat dish on the roof that works maybe 25% of the time due to the camp moveing when it blows. And this is one of the better camps i have been in..
