Okay. Thanks again for your advice. I'm going to have to weigh my options here...

First of all thanks. With regards to having crane operator/ safety/ HLO/ medic certifications, what would the odds be of trying to get all of those type certs, having no experience, and actually landing a job just from those? I am assuming quite possibly a waste of cash, from what I've heard. If that's what it takes though I'm fully prepared to do that, if you even can get them with no experience.

I'll be brief, I'm in my early 30's and looking to get into O&G, old for this I know, and wanting some no BS advice on what kinds of skills/ schools would be beneficial to get familiar with, short of a 4 year degree in Petro Engineering (which I'm considering regardless of how long it takes).

I'm in the US, I know I will have to work domestically for a while but just looking for some advice on a good skill to specialize in considering I already have a college degree (Industrial Science), military experience and am getting maybe a bit too old for a roustabout. HSE? Trade School? Any Master's Degree field specialty? End goal is to be working offshore internationally within...well...as soon as I can make that happen. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Sorry if I've missed another post with these exact questions.

Anyone else have suggestions? C'mon we all love that shit. Don't lie...where's it at?

I would, but I live in the States. Planning on a move over for a year though out of sheer boredom so maybe I will do that.

I have been trying to find where to download or at least find out the names (song, artist, etc.) of some of the Thai music you'd hear being blasted during songkran or at most go-go's to no avail. Can't get anything out of any Thai's I know (maybe they want to hold on to the one thing foreigner's haven't weasled into??), so wondering if anyone can name some of the more popular bar music artists or at least a site that has it. A great example is the song I used in a video I made, skip to after half way thru the first one. Thanks for any help.

So does anyone here know anything about any shared office spaces any other traders use to bounce ideas back and forth, etc.? I'm contemplating coming there and getting an EFL job while trading the gaps at the open in the US market (until I can lose the EFL job) mainly with APPL and SPY weekly options. This way I can get in and out before 10-11 pm and make a few hundred $$.

What kind of visa do people with similar goals usually get? I'm not retiring, and may not be working, so...? Just want to move there for a year. Thanks.
