[QUOTE="wawazat, post: 3566516, member: 35603"] In O&G, you cant really expect to to wear the same hard hat for your entire career. I started off CHK, the midstream group split and went independent for a couple of years then was bought by Williams. That was 3 hard hats in 5 years while I still worked with the same team. I had planned on sticking with Access forever, but Williams ruined everything we had and I didnt accept the relocation to Tulsa. I did end up commuting to another company in Tulsa instead that had an amazing culture and group for almost 3 years until I was head hunted by a place that was less than 10 miles from home for almost a year. Then I was head hunted again by my boss's boss from the Tulsa company and now get to work for a Denver outfit from home full time. I have 10 years in this discipline of O&G with a handful of prior bosses that hit me up at least once a year to relocate to wherever they have landed but none are in OKC. Relocation isn't an option until the kids are out of school. I fully expect us to have the value built at this company for it to be bought inside the next 5-7 years, so the shuffle will start all over again. [/QUOTE]
