I'm a Hydrographer, we measure water level and flow in rivers around Tasmania. We've got 80+ sites around the State that we have to maintain, most are accessed by 4WD, some by helicopter. I look after the electronics side of things, data-loggers, instruments, power supplies, data telemetry. It's been interesting reading this thread, there's a few jobs mentioned that I thought would be OK, but not many that would beat what I do.

We've got a 12ft aluminium boat that we use to measure river flow if the water is too deep to wade, when we got it someone suggested a naming competition. A bloke that works here that grew up in the US suggested "Saskatchewan Queen", so no competition, that's what she's called. It's great to see people driving passed, trying to read the name when the boat is upside down on top of the 4wd.
