Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone

The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.

Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!

How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

Its A Dangerous Job That We Do

Please keep this family in your prayers. In my industry, things like this can happen in the blink of an eye. Fortuantely I don't have to work on drilling rigs very often. My work is mainly on the production side of things. It is just as dangerous, but fatalities are less common than around a drilling rig.
We watch each other out here and strive to maintain a safe work environment. Accidents do happen, but we work really hard to be able at the end of the day to go haome and see the family.
Again, remember this family in your prayers.

Reading things like this FREAKS me out!! I always call my brother first to make sure it's not him. They shouldn't post anything until family has been notified and name can be released.
