Ok let's pick a new topic... Let's talk about where I work. I have a Marketing Degree, and I live in the sticks so the fact that I found a job that I can use my degree on a daily basis is pretty crazy. I'm lucky!
I do Marketing and Human Resources for a company called DANLIN. Danlin is owned by DANny and LINda Floyd. They are great people, they are wonderful Christians, and they employee most all their family, with the exception of a few of us... we just fall in the mix somehow.
My job requires me to travel some. I got to Oil and Gas Expo's and 'man' the booth for engineers, pumpers, and forman to come by and talk business. This year I've been to several shows: Wichita Falls, OKC - 3 times, Perryton, TX, Midland, TX, and this summer I will go to Longview, TX, San Antonio, TX, and Dallas, TX. Aside from having to be away overnight sometimes this is the funnest part of my job. I get to get out there shake hands and meet people.
and my job allows me to go on location from time to time. Above is a picture of us on a location, waiting to do a photoshoot for the brochures that I put together. Locations have strict rules: Hard hats, steel toe boots, and safety glasses. Which is EXACTLY how we are all decked out.
Then I go out to drilling rigs - this is how I "learn" it's hard to write a brochure, work on the website, and attend trade shows if you've never been on a well site. So here I am on a well site getting educated! Please try not to be jealous of the 1. hardhat 2. safety glasses. I can let you borrow them if you want.
Again, I have an interesting job. Marketing certainly allows for a variety and allows for times not sitting behind a desk. It does take a lot of computer work, from design, to upkeep I look at a computer a lot... but again all in all I am very blessed to work for a great Company!
