you were still productive
lol
party or not
I could not continue on like they did...I knew better
Yeah.. ?
I saw a lot of people die from the alcohol
My wife had enough of the dumbshit
That'll do it !
LOL
sounds like you made the right choice
They say they'll change but they don't
Let's just say I wore the alcohol out in Kodiak
is there a reason for that? because of the isolation?
I quit for the second time on 2/1/2011
Walked away from it
2011
Yes
same year..
Yes
wow
that is "sobering"
I think I’d end up with a headache or feel sick if I had any alcohol.
I can hardly handle dr pepper
I'd be a cheap date or instant asshole
But that all changed that year huh
Yes
pinnacle point in your life.
@Notsoperfect Isolation can be pretty bad. I knew guys that went up on that Alaskan Pipeline job years ago. They made TONS of money, but returned with very little. After work, all there was to do was drink and play with the prostitutes.
Yep
Right ??
That's what I was wondering @KLATU so sad
I made good money up on the slope
They were goin' STIR CRAZY
I remember going stir crazy
Why I flourish here in BFECentral Oregon
If I have an audience I'll just get into trouble
Sometimes we have to fall on our knees.. before realize how we have been living.
Had I continued...I'd not be here now
@Ron Ward what is great about your story.. is.. you recognized your weaknesses.. and removed yourself. And you have made something of your life.. You are happy.. Your children love you and are part of your business.. I just think it's pretty cool story.. to see your entire journey.
I'm no different than anyone else in that same boat
