Oil Industry is far from average, they get paid danger pay as well. Plus most is remote locations for travel pay.
Getting 1k a day out of a Northern Alberta Oil Industry Labor job is probably fairly common. Like I said, I was making that much as a window/siding guy 15 years ago (out west as well).
EDIT- Of course mine was seasonal, 8 months a year. And we worked 16-18 hr days all summer long.
