Just go to Texas. Preferable climate, cost of living, wages, and economy.

I'm getting great progression and such here in Calgary, but I'm still thinking of going down there in the near term.

Maybe work for a geotechnical firm that works in construction. I work with a lot of them that are ex-O&G and they all love the change.

Lifestyle sucks though if you are into to anything active outdoors. Spent a bunch of time in Midland and Houston lately and it would drive me nuts.
