After about twenty odd years in the field (and now working mostly at sea), my family decided it was time I finally started dressing like a geologist
(I'll probably still show up to conferences in a waistcoat and a buttoned-up shirt or a Hawaiian shirt, season-dependent, but these are nice for casual days in the office)

@ombialik@mastodon.world my brother in law delights in buying me cheesy geo-T-shirts. I wear them quite a lot... 😁😄

@ombialik@mastodon.world My place geologists are more into GoreTex or even plain rubber - less room for individual expression there. But, has it never occurred to you that those poor little stones may just want to stay where they are; slowly but progressively being grinded to sand, then laid out as sediment in some exotic place, and then later participate in the magic of subduction and even metamorphosis? Just thinking... 🤔
