About 10 years ago I got put in charge of a side business our company was involved with building linear rod pumps to replace traditional horse head pump jacks. I got called down to Cleburne, Texas on several occasions to deal with problems with our units. Locations looked just like they do on Landman with the roughneck workers being very "rough". Had to wait a full day once while they put new tubing down in a well. It was 100 degree day and the workers busted their azzes changing the tubing while wearing full fire resistant coveralls. I bet there was at least 100 empty plastic water bottles laying on the ground when they were done. They worked on the tubing until 1:00 am then reinstalled our pump. I ran a couple tests then drove up to DFW and barely made my 7:00 am flight home.
Those workers were hardcore as was their supervisor. I don't think any sentence I heard him speak did not include the "F" bomb.
