Some interesting jobs posted, thanks for sharing!
I've been a consultant to the major oil companies the last few years, but now I'm one of those salary guys. I work as a Sr Project Manager for a large offshore construction company. Degree in mechanical engineering. Our company owns the ships that are required to build all the subsea oil/gas fields at the bottom of your worldwide oceans. We are working in depths of almost 2 miles nowadays, with specialized equipment. Unmanned robot submarines (ROV's) and huge cranes and winches. I was fortunate enough to get into this field back when 1,500 ft was considered deep, and have stayed at the forefront of this technology. I enjoy the work, because every year it is something different and I work with different customers. I'm typically managing projects in the 30-100 M$ range, so it can be demanding and stressful at times.
Even though I stay busy, I also find time to run a few hobby businesses on the side. I sell forged wheels for cars, do some automotive photography and writing, and run a few car websites.
