A few days ago (how many??) we skidded the rig to drill a new well. To do this they had to move our work unit backwards and sideways. They didn't switch everything off this time, and we needed to work so they moved it with us inside, hanging on to the computer screens to keep them safe. Which is unfortunately why I couldn't take any photos of the bulldozer dragging us with toe-ropes! But it was quite fun-the roughneck in charge usually came running round to the door, shouted in "ready?" "DAVAI" we answered, and the bulldozer went for it.
They moved us quite a lot and as a result we ended up on a little slope, which apparently was not these people's business to fix.
It took 12 hours of lobbying for the toolpusher to send his men to sort it out (Sperry Sun had the same problem). During this time Sasha and I were going completely mad trying to work while rolling backwards-of course the computers were at the top of the slope...here is a little video of Sasha climbing up our work unit. And...my chair had wheels too!
