    Geotechnical jobs.

    I live in a major US metro area, and finding time a damn soils engineer was a nightmare. There are very few around and it can take months to get on their calendar because they’re spread so damn thin.

        That’s a good point. The problem is probably that they don’t want to do residential contract work. They’d rather work for big developers or energy companies.
