I really asked about this cause my friend said he works a 7 on 7 off schedule doing this and makes 100+ hours the week he works no matter what...and he pretty much hops around a few diff rigs....I thinknid be alright if I could get on something like this offshore but not 24 hour call bs. Thats the reason im even considering it...I make excellent money now and am able to give my wife and little boy everything they want but im unhappy because I have no time with them...I work all the time and get ran like a dog job after job...ive asked to go in house on a set schedule somewheres but that is on straight 40 and I want a little more than that...I guess im saying a whole week off with my little boy would be great after a 100 hour work week.

Yeah, those certs take a lot of time, money and, effort to acquire. 7 and 7 would be awesome and, I'd be after your friend to get me more details so that, maybe, you wouldn't be the call-out guy....That guy's life sucks!...I've been him before.
That said, I walked completely away from the industry over what you mentioned with your wife and kid. I watched my son learn to walk in an email. Not cool! It was a big pay cut initially and, a huge lifestyle change, for sure! Whatever you do, don't miss those young years!
Good luck in whatever you decide!
