"Boomtown"


5 of 12

"Sleeping In" After a long night of drinking with a co-worker after their shift, driller James Krei of Wyoming sleeps late into the morning on the floor of the mobile home of his former boss Dennis Brehm. James had to be at work at 6am but he lucked out because his boss called and said his shift would start at noon instead. James admitted that he probably would not have made the start of his shift and would have been laid off. Roughnecks work long shifts of at least 12 hours a day for two weeks straight with two weeks off.
