One of the reasons why I never studied Geology and instead did Computer Science.

I collected rocks - had books on rocks - orientation day at the Geology Dept and the dude told me I am not going to be driving a Landrover but will be working in a mine.

I looked up the deepest mine in the world - recalled a childhood memory of spelunking in the Cango Caves.

Decision made.




If you look up Itchy Boots on YouTube, you could be riding a Honda motorcycle around the world. Probably more profitable than being a geologist, too.
