Don Harmon is teaching the ‘hands-on’ training at the NMJC Oil and Gas Training Program - “Lease Pumper” course; and what an outstanding teacher he is!
He gives the students of the “Lease Pumper” course solid foundation to start their career because of his firsthand experience doing the job since he was 8 years old with his father.
Sounds to me that he has definitely found his calling in life and with his faith and passion come though during the interview… after this interview; I hope you will want to listen to the next episode of Oilfield Talk where he is teaching the hands on portion of this course.
