Got any tips on how you managed this?
As a geologist in the mineral exploration field, I am more appreciative than ever about my job. Many of the people I went to school with are "on call" or "temporary lay-off". I worked some pretty brutal hours when times were good so I am now able to catch up and evaluate what we've accomplished over the past two years.
I've had to lay off a couple workers, I get to work from home, no middle of the night calls from haywire drillers, and only work 8 hours a day 5 days/week. I feel completely under-stimulated right now.
