Oil-Drilling Roughnecks - is this the job to have?

It's the view of my friends (and myself) that no matter what Obama says, and no matter how low the price of oil falls, oil drilling will become a necessity in this country. One reason (in many) is the U.S. can't trust its supply to the Middle East because of a variety of issues, many of which are beyond our control.

Moving from politics, one of my friends asked what an oil-drilling roughneck's work life is like, and, because I'm also interested, I promised I would ask that here on PPOT. So, do any of you guys have insight into this job?
