Last night we were having some problems with drilling and the mud engineer called the cabin for some numbers. Since I don't speak Portuguese, I got the goofy directional driller to explain to the mud engineer about min/max and average ECD over the phone. There was a long discussion about it and I was puzzled on what they were talking about since it was just simple statistic. He was writing down "the formula" while he was explaining as I was watching (since I didn't understand a word of Portuguese). The formula went, "min + max / 2 = FUCK YOU!"
He hung up the phone after that, appeared mad, and turned to me, "The mud engineer STUPID MAN!" in his heavy Brazilian Portuguese accent.
The paper was laying on the table and my counterpart for day shift looked puzzled and asked me about "min + max / 2 = FUCK YOU?"
Yes, the mud engineer was a dumbass. If you think that he's right, go take STATS 101 to avoid being a dumbass.

Did you fking piss on me?
Not that rigs don't have restrooms, it's just an inconvenience for personnel on the rig floor during certain operations, like tripping pipes, when they have to be working round the clock with little breaks in between. Most of the time, there will be a designated piss pot or drain at one corner of the rig floor, or sometimes it will be just a platform that will allow you to piss straight into the ocean. The latter depends entirely on the direction of the wind, with no walls, what comes out will just be gone with the wind.
Gone with the wind.
It was raining, everyone was drenched. Roustabout Cormier came up to the rig floor and yelled, "Who fking pissed on me?"
I guess he felt something warm and tasted kinda funny. Que probecito, pero it's kinda funny to hear that.
Rig entertainment #1.
