Op could have made worse choices overall. ATVs are pretty cool. Soil is soil. Coulda been a cubicle monkey. At least op is getting some sun.

Me too, thanks.
ATV is cool, yeah!
But sampling soil from who-knows-where is shit. Imagine two weeks of rain at 4 °C and everyday you have to drive out. You are muddy, you are wet, you are freezing.
If you get the proper gear, clothing etc. - - still better than a cubicle in urban hell.
I'd take a substantial pay cut for the opportunity.

You're not wrong. I make enough money at my current work that I'm hoping to be able to stop working w/i about 10 years (I'd be in my mid 40's) and then go do some kind of outdoors work (ideally as a park ranger or game warden) where I'd be able to get back to my redneck roots and be away from the city 75% of the time.
with the right gear even freezing rain is tolerable, the big thing is that you need to prevent any water from getting between the boots and the rain/snow pants (or use the single piece pant boot things for wading).
single piece pant boot things for wading
Waders?
But you are also paid, which is alright.
Thanks for the reality check
atvs are a death trap
