Check out the Target Logistics cribs

Life working on the Bakken Formation oil fields in North Dakota can be pretty brutal this time of year. It’s cold. It’s windy. Mother Nature is relentless. But at least some of the rig workers can count on pretty comfortable digs to return to when those long shifts end. That’s because Target Logistics is on the job. The site services company is building worker camps throughout the state – and the accommodations are compared to university housing with housekeeping service and some good eats.
