I'm transferring to TU next spring and finish up as Petroleum Engineer, so I'll be in the oil/Natural gas field. My parents are in the Oil and Natural Gas business (but I don't want to work for my parents)

Frontier Midstream LLC, they market gas for Ward petroleum and other companies. They also own and build pipeline and compression stations. My mom is VP of Marketing and my parents own a percentage of the company. My dad also owns a commercial janitorial company and does some commercial real estate. I have some motivated parents...damn I must be a disappointment
