Geologist Problems

Just a reminder to all followers, you can submit here at any time :)

Using your rock hammer to hang a painting because you cant find a real hammer anywhere.

BONUS: when said tour guide pulls the whole "suspended rock" routine but tells everyone not to worry about it falling because GEOGRAPHERS have checked it out.

Resisting every urge in your body not to interrupt and correct the tour guide at the park on their dates or terminology every 10mins.

When someone comes back from a vacation and tells you all about how much they know you would have loved all the "GEOGRAPHICAL" features.

A long day's work collecting data with your Brunton. Get home, notice it was set to the wrong declination the whole time.

Stop on the side of the highway to look at an outcrop... Cop gives you a ticket.

"It's just a rock" is never something acceptable to hear.

Checking bedrock/surficial maps before you go somewhere new just so you can feel knowledgable about the local geology when you are there.

While visiting a historical monument, more concerned about identifying the rock type that it is constructed from than the monument itself.

Driving everyone crazy on the trip because you can see karst topography from your window seat in the airplane, and they just dont understand.

When you're on a road trip and all you wish you could do is have the bus pull over so you can collect a sample from that amazing outcrop
