Thanks, all info is appreciated, I'm just now learning about this profession. Yeah my motivation is a little bit of everything that you mentioned. Pay, sure, but I like the idea of working a few weeks and then getting a few weeks off. I find that kind of nice. Also, the type of work just seems a bit more rewarding than strict labor positions.
