One day my boss was driving by in his ute (pickup) and says jokingly on the two-way "you know I think you've got the best job in the mine site" and I said "you know, I think you're right". There is always, always something to learn. When I left the oilfield and started doing civil residential stuff I'll say the learning curve was very, very steep. Took about eight years to start to be comfortable with it. Now I've given that away, but I refuse to accept "that's good enough for a mine standards". Right now we're building a dam (yeah I know it's the rainy season) and I'm looking forward to doing those batters (slopes).
