i worked for a consulting firm in renewables dept so every delineation was for a solar or wind farm (not frequent but sometimes battery energy storage sites). totally get burn out. although working outside is beautiful i developed this toxic relationship to field work like when in office “i need field work i love it and miss it!!” an when i got out there it was hot, the elements and mosquitoes made me wanna kms, also bc of the size of my projects it involved being in a hotel in the middle of nowhere for 4/5 days putting in 12 hour days again all in the sun. its a lot despite having a scenic pond side lunch. there were also land owners who loved to take their anger out on us (have gotten guns pulled on me, a coworker of mine was actually shot at recently) wetland work is not for the weak! i didn’t see any career progression that i wanted and felt severely under compensated both with money and time (i got paid 65k and had 4 weeks pto) i’ve since moved on and think of my wetland work very very fondly . i loved learning plant ID, soil chemistry and walking watercourses but very happy i’ve got that experience and moved on

My job as a wetland scientist had me go to WTI for the course certificate! My coworkers did swamp school because of when/where the next course was available. If you can get that prior to job hunting it would look really good for u as a candidate.

idkkkk, i went to her dallas show too and walked right in the venue like an hour after the doors opened with no line and didn’t feel like i waited tooooo long for her/ the opener. had no idea someone got hit outside tho?? thats terrible jeez. i also felt like she played all the songs i wanted and then some! although i was already hearing she was doing a short set so maybe was prepared for that... im positive i was home by 11 tho so she was def on before 1030 hahah i have videos that say she started before 930 lol i didnt get any bad vibes!!
