    Default Your Dream Job?

    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

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
