Formula for success: rise early, work hard, strike oil

Italian Certified LEGO professional Riccardo Zangelmi is living the dream and has built a detailed oil rig for VALLAND SPA. They don’t make hot tubs as I initially thought but rather oil and gas valves. An oil platform makes perfect sense, then. Riccardo tells us that most oil platforms are gray (can confirm) but he took some artistic license and made it a bright white and a happy yellow. With the happy colors on there, this seems like a fun place to work- or at least a super fun playset. Get the boat and fishing gear! Is that not what they do on oil rigs? Even if it’s all serious business, I imagine a hard day working on an oil rig would warrant a trip to the spa to be pampered like a god. But not VALLAND SPA, as we’ve already established, they make oil and gas valves.
