Oilfield Joke: The Phone Call

The company safety meeting was over and Tom the Toolpusher and his associates congregated at a nearby watering hole in Odessa.  They slid some tables together and it was bedlam with people coming and going and all talking at the same time.  A cell phone rang and Tom snatched it up, engaged the hands-free speaker-function and answered. Everyone at the table stopped talking to listen. Tom: "Hello" Woman: "Honey, it's me. Is the safety meeting over?"  Tom: “Yep” Woman: "I'm at the mall and found this beautiful leather coat. It's only $1,000. Can I buy it?" Tom: "Sure... Go ahead if you like it that much." Woman: "I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership. I saw one I really liked." Tom: "How much?" Woman: "$65,000" Tom: "OK, but for that price I want it with all the options." Woman: "Great! Oh, and one more thing... The house I wanted last year is back on the market. They're asking $700,000." Tom: "Well, then go ahead and give them an offer, but only for $650,000." Woman: "OK. I'll see you later! I love you!" Tom: "Bye, I love you, too." Tom ended the call and there was complete silence as everyone stared at him with astonishment and awe.  Tom  held up the phone and innocently asked. “Anyone know whose phone this is?”

Oilfield Joke: The Company Man

A company man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a Man below. He descended a bit more and shouted, "Excuse me,
can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I
don't know where I am."

The Man below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering
approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees
north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."

"You must be a Drilling Engineer," said the Company Man. 

"I am," replied the Man,
"How did you know?"

"Well," answered the Company Man, "everything you told me is, technically
correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information, and the fact
is I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything,
you've delayed my trip."

The Drilling Engineer below responded, "You must be a Company Man." "I am," replied the Company Man, "but how did you know?"

"Well," said the Drilling Engineer, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fault."

Oilfield Joke of the Day: Retired

A man retires after 50 years in the oilfield. He is hanging around the house and gets bored, so he goes down to the nieghborhood bar.
He's having a couple of beers and starts a conversation with the bartender. The bartender asks him what he does. The guy says he just retired after 50 years in the oil patch.
The bartender says "wow! 50 years huh? You must know all there is to know about drilling an oil well".
The guy chuckles and says "no. I don't figure i know half of it."
the bartender is amazed. He says "you mean you worked in the oil business for 50 years and you don't know all there is to know about it?"
guy says " no, not by a long shot."
bartender says "well just how long do you have to work in the oilfield to know all there is to know about it?"
the man thought a second and says "usually about 6 months!"
