That's funny, because I went into environmental remediation for a couple of years after graduating and then switched to IT, where I spent the next 25.

I got into geology because I lived in the out doors and considered myself an environmentalist. Sad part was the jobs in stratigraphy and comp science were indoor jobs hunting for oil. Weird turn was I left school to go auto racing. After leaving the auto industry I when back into the bicycle and ski industry for 30 years so. Strange how life works out.

I loved environmental geology at first. Drilling wells, sampling, mapping plumes, designing and building remediation systems, etc. It was fun and interesting. Then I gained seniority and got pulled into the office to write endless reports on the various projects we were involved with. That got really old, really fast. Plus my lunatic boss believed in hand written reports where you literally cut out parts of the previous report you wanted to use and pasted them into the new report. True cut and paste. Then you hand wrote the rest. Typing, he claimed, was for the secretaries. That was my cue to find another job.
