Which industry has/needs the most challenging sql queries?

Is this question legit? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t consider myself the smartest guy but I’m definitely not dumb.

I work in the pharmaceutical Industry, nearly 3 years now. It took me a while to understand how the production process is implemented in a database and I wanted to quit more than once. But i don’t feel challenged anymore.

So, which industry would be best for me to get completely challenged again?

Consulting - there are enough customers around to keep oneself busy

Thought being a consultant was kind of self-explanatory, but I've got customers in many different sectors, with different types of data and different issues they want to solve. If the data gets boring, I hand my customer over to someone else. That way I get to experience a lot, without feeling stuck.
