Your Dream Job?

[pegasus]

So... What would you consider as your Dream Job?

I personally... would choose from 2...

1) CFD engineer / Aerodynamics engineer for any of the F1 teams. I love CFD, and fluid dynamics and working for the F1 teams would couple CFD and F1 racing love into one. Fluent 6.3 <3

2) Drilling Engineer for Oil Companies. Just seems like being able to say ... "hey... I drilled a 40,000 feet well last night...whats up?"
sounds so epic. (lol I didnt know D&M stood for till 3 weeks ago though)

I mean't dream job related to your field...Or something achievable.

Bonus Dream Job.

lol To become a world famous DJ/Producer. :) hahah

[The_Rural_Juror]

I want Hughie's job.

[EM1FTW]

lol one i have no chance of ever having: Taking Jermey, Richard or James' spot on top gear

[ExtraSlow]

I just got job #2 after working five years in a different kind of petroleum engineering.
So far it does seem to be one of the most presitigous jobs in the 'patch, just because of how much money you spend. Really though, a lot of people would hate it because of how 24/7 it is. If your rig is working, you are taking calls in the middle of the nigth if anything goes wrong.

That being said, I'm enjoying it so far.

[88jbody]

I am working towards mine.
Started as a mechanic, got my interprovincial licence and now have moved up to service manager. a few more years and I hope to buy in as a partner.

dream job in this field is to own 2-3 shops and relax and just have managers run them for me wile I sit on a beach and have some dark tanned girl bring my drinks.

Haha and you still don't know how deep oil wells go. Is that TVD or measured depth?

[97'Scort]

Getting paid to do body shots off Halle Berry for the rest of my life.

I love DJing...if I could make as much money from that as I do with engineering stuff I'd be happy. Pipe dream though.

Personally I'd just like a job that keeps me engaged, multiple projects, not just massive bloated drawn out ones, and co-workers that don't treat you like an outcast.

[schocker]

Some kind of oil and gas drilling, probably sagd type applications.

dream job of course would be a person assistant for rage2:rofl:

[CausalInfluence]

Work for Force india engine/chasis engineer.

Own my own shop. Build turbo imports.

[LadyLuck]

I have been working in the Music Industry for the last 4+ years.

I am the events assistant manager at Sait (the Gateway)
and have managed bands in the past, currently manage one and have also been tour managing as well.

My ultimate goal is to be an events manager at a bar outside of Sait, perhaps start my own management company or something along those lines.

still deciding but will be staying in the music biz :D

[95EG6P]

Dream Job........ummmmmm

1) Play Halo 3 for living

2) No job at all and getting paid for it

3) Owning my own Fitness center

[HybridTheory]

Are we talking realistically?

Realistically since I'm stuck in the insurance industry, I'd like to work in the field. But that's not really a "dream", it's my goal to be a field adjuster in the next year or two.

But if I could have any job, it'd be awesome to be an editor of a magazine or a designer of some sort.

was that a joke? Why would you think it's a vertical depth? 40,000 feet weird enough IS the deepest 'hole' in the world. Atleast when I last read it was... pretty sure it was Kola peninsula in russia... i forget..... but not oil or gas, just for earth crust research.
32,000 feet is the deepest vertical hole I think for oil n gas. It's a gas well in Oklahoma because there was molten sulfer below.

I guess I mean't distance... not displacement.

So you pointed out the fallacy in your own original statement. As a drilling engineer for an oil company, you aren't going to be drilling holes 40,000 feet deep. Not even close.

But the statement really conveyed your ignorance... 40,000 ft? Come on.

Epic? I don't know about that. My cousin is a drilling engineer for Chevron... if sitting in a trailer in the middle of nowhere while the rig crew works is epic - so be it. It's not like you're going to be rotating the drillstring with your bare hands as you make it sound.

Anyways, you'll eventually end up in the office drawing up well plans and AFEs anyways - not epic. Some of the technology is pretty cool though... coiled tubing, underbalance drilling etc.

Although, my instructor for my drilling and completions course has some pretty cool stories about working offshore in the North Sea, Venezuela and Brunei. Plus onshore in Oman and the WCSB...

But if you want to work in the oil and gas sector so bad, have you thought of transferring to a university that has a petroleum engineering program and taking some courses? As your experience with Sclum has shown, if companies are going to be hiring in the downturn, it's not just going to be any warm body anymore. They are going to want people with relevant training.

For example, by the time I graduate, I'll have taken most of these courses:

http://ucalgary.ca/pubs/calendar/2008/what/courses/ENPE.htm

A lot are taught by professionals with years of experience and offer more of an practical, real world experience.

Aaaaaaaaaaaah. Man don't make assumptions. I haven't worked in CRUDE OIL, but I have worked the patch. I was Research engineer - intern for a year at Syncrude Research Centre in Edmonton. I designed a Thermal measurement data acquisition system with bluetooth interface for the hydrogen furnaces.
The design was used in a refinery in Azerbaijan by Exxon and at a refinery by Murphy oil and Nexen, along with Syncrude in their upgrading in Fort Mcmurray.

I am not stupid to the oil industry. I know how it goes. I know my ins and outs. I didn't know much about the drilling side of things since most of the work I did was in the refinery/upgrading section.

I want to get down and dirty. That is why I wanted the Schlumberger position. It is not like I don't have a position waiting at other companies. I can goto U of A grad school or Berkely or Caltech anytime I want. All sponsored. I have offers from Exxon Research and Syncrude.

But that is not the point. That is not something I want right now.

So once again, as I mentioned earlier. I am NOT stupid to the oil industry. I am not some random applying to make money in the oil patch. If you find mistakes in what I say about this section of the oil industry, correct me, educate me, but donot put me down.

'Nuf said.

Even 1/4 of that is a surreal rariety, very few rigs are capable of dealing with even that sort of depth.

The deepest I ever saw with shell/suncor when I was with schlumberger was 6500m, and that was string length. Most were in the 4000 range as you said.

Anyways that isn't the point of this thread but I do find it funny he wants to do D&M as a dream job. I hated it. :rofl:

It was actually 40,000 feet, which is still rediculous,

40,000 feet = 12,191.4 meters, if that was drilled in 12 hours, your ROP would be 1015 m/hour.... you couldn't even trip that fast.

It was a stupid comment, but the point he was trying to get across was that he would like to be a drilling engineer. Which I can understand, drilling/completions is the field I would like to get into upon graduation.

See... that's what I mean. I'm not trying to be rude - but I thought you knew the "patch." These are basics. You want to be drilling engineer, but you don't know what a rig is... are you serious, or just baiting me?

A rig is what puts the hole in the ground. You went to a mining project, which is not even remotely related to a drilling rig. SAGD and CSS for example, use drilling.

This:

Does not equal this:

Stand, monkey board, kelly bushing, mud tanks, doghouse, crown block, J-55 casing, drill collars, bentonite, Tool Push, PDC, gel-chem, tricone... any of this sound familiar?

I would love to be a marketer working for a Japanese automobile manufacturer. Something cool where, I could work 2 weeks in Japan, then 2 weeks back in Canada. I don't really care what company it is, but I would love to be the creative director. If not, anything that gets me decent pay, a position where I can be a part of the creative design, and travel.

Not in the marketing field, I want a job that has some travel, like once a month or so. As long as its not to fort McMurray.

Other dream job, would be to open a HIGH end tire store, dealing exclusively with custom wheels. Then eventually branch out to the store becoming a complete stop for any modifications. I could do custom wheels all day long, but with the economy heading the way it is, looks like that dream is a couple years away :(

Snowboard Production Manager
For 5 seasons, I was working with a friend creating snowboard videos. I did the "management" side. Setting up trips/premieres/sponsors. etc; Unless you're one of the top players, (Absinthe, MDP, Standard, etc;) you're just getting by. The partying, pow turns, and fun involved just couldn't keep me going for such minimal money (& free gear). I'd love to be doing it, making 6 figures. Unfortunately, even the biggest player in that game, is now moving away from Snowboard Videos - Mike McIntyre of Mack Dawg, having just finished their last season. (word in the industry anyhow; attribute it to new online media, & every kid having a 3chip nowadays.)

Otherwise... I'd probably do nothing at all, just hang with friends and travel.
As far as a realistic dream job I'd be a web designer... like I am now, just with less overtime and more pay ;)

playing poker for a living gets boring after a while. even if your winning. trust me. i tried it for a stretch. online and live play. my dream job isnt really a dream job. i consider ownership different from an actual job. but i would like to own a ton of property and live off it and trade stocks on the side all day. OH BABY:thumbsup:

It has it's ups and downs for sure, but I have a lot of friends that do play, and we have a lot of voice calls and it is enjoyable, railing each other, helping each other out...

I'm talking about only having 2 play the $100+ MTT's

playing music for a living... what could be more awesome than 250 000 people singing the words to your song while you rock a guitar solo!?
