New here. Surgut, oil services, 15/15. Most of our camp is Nurzhan Polytechnic boys and Bashkirs. Thread for everybody on rotation in the north. How do you stay sane? I'll start: you don't. You call home at 22:00 every night and watch Neftchi on a phone with one bar.
Two weeks on, two weeks off, always cold. |

One bar is enough for Neftchi. Neftchi only needs one bar.

Moscow oblast here, but my uncle did Nizhnevartovsk for 11 years. His rules: never sign a contract the first day, never lend money the last day, buy the good boots not the cheap boots. Since September I add one more: don't talk to the men in uniform who visit the hostel.
red passport for home, the other one for the job |

Good boots already. Uniform men came on Tuesday. Kyrgyz passport, they went away. Some of the young boys are still listening to them.

Mod hat off, Nurzhan hat on: boys, read the mobilization thread. Then call your mothers.

New rules for migrants again. More paperwork, more checks at the station. Half of last year's Polytechnic boys went to Almaty or home. The camp is quieter. More room in the drying room for boots.

Can confirm. Many new faces at my window from the north. They send less. They smile more.
Send dollars. Keep the phone charged. Never give the code. |

Rough week in camp. The Russian guys saw the news about the American president and Irad and spent two days calling me "comrade compatriot" and asking how much I cost. Mostly jokes. Mostly. An older guy from Tyumen told them to stop and gave me his tea. People are people.

Season four of the cold thread. -9 and it's not even October. Somebody in the camp asked if Tulparcoin pays in rubles. I said read FREECHAT. Nobody reads FREECHAT.
