I am and have been looking for a while, any chance they would hire on the spot. Im a 10 year mechanic looking for more and better opportunities.

With no oilfield experience you'd be looking at a shop job (50-60) hours a week at 10 an hour. I'm sure it's not worth it

You just need to interview with the right place. You might be able to get on with a field service company like luke used to be with, are you wanting to go land side of oil field or offshore? I can shoot you some suggestions on field service companies for off shore. Just let me know.
