Chef, good Sir.
If it is done correctly, it combines science, passion, philosophy, math and quite often the results tastes amazing.

Semi-related question:

Any of you /sci/entists ever work as a research assistant? Was it a good job? I've been applying for psychology research assistant posts, all of which pay a surprisingly decent salary of £25k-30k (more than the typical graduate position, at least). It just seems to involve data collection and analysis, which is essentially what I've just been doing at university for the last 4 years anyway. I think it seems like quite a cosy way for me to save up money for the next few years while I decide what I want to do with my life.

Positions like that can be cushy as fuck, or annoying as hell. It all depends on how the person you're working for is running the show.

That said, if you're unsure of what you want to do, give it two years. At the worst, you'll have money and know for a fact that you don't want to do it again, but if you do pull the trigger, give. it. at. least. two. years.

Public speaking scientist. They can speak some hard truth in the realm of celebrities who lack real-world insight and news outlets that speak for their political agendas. They're often the wisest people with the biggest voices and can explain what really matters and why to the unlearned masses who vote on who makes the law.

The only thing that ever seems to mar them is hubris.
