    Well then what your boss wants to do I don't think he's allowed to.

    Long story short, we're going to be keeping our overtime, any hours we had banked were paid out today.

    Yeah, I wish I could have it changed, not particularly sure anymore what I was thinking when I decided on it as every other handle I've used for forums has had my last name in it.

    Sanjel, errr, STEP, has staged all local Sanjel equipment just outside of town here. I'll try to get a pic. It's an ocean of Sanjel equipment. Crazy! I wish I had a drone. It would be awesome footage.

    Always an eye opener to see rows and rows of parked equipment. Someone is going to sell a lot of grey paint.

    I went for a ride on my bike and stopped to grab a few pics for you guys. There is a whole other lot to the left that's filled as well.

    Heard 60 let go. Not sure on ratio but some field staff included.

    Here is some Sanjel footage we got from the highway.

    Switch to 720p.

    STEP already owns all of the Sanjel equipment. It will be stored on lots in Red Deer and another up by GP (from what I'm told) until they bring it back in service.

    We've had 3 rounds of lay-off. I'm on a reduced working hours, 30 hours per week. I'm not sure I will survive the 4th round.

    Not necessarily, they are likely just bringing all the equipment together for maintenance and updating (fancy new paintjobs!) then will likely send back out to the field. Al though I'm sure they will put up some equipment for sale

    Funny you'd mention that Sugarphreak. I just got re-hired, along with a few others

    New thread is probably worthwhile. I think any major re-hiring will lag a rise in oil prices for 4-6 months. I also think any company that can handle an increase in activity without rehiring will attempt to scrape by for at least two full quarters in an attempt to "repair the balance sheet" as Peter Tertzikian says.

    Myself, I don't consider a recovery underway until we are over 350 rig count at least, no matter what WTI is at.
