      I was talking to a friend about sustainability and how we cannot have energy efficiency without fossil fuels. We said we must find a way to obtain the amount of energy a combustion reaction makes without producing carbon dioxide. Then we started to go into using cold fusion, explosions, natural disasters, and anything else that can create so much energy so quickly. After that, we started brainstorming ways we could store that energy and use it. Ultimately, without carbon dioxide emission, our planet would be saved 😂. There’s so much more but I’d be here forever typing.

    I would also add that one of the awesome things is that through engineering, physics and math majors you get incredible grit. The workload is usually insane and difficult, you will have to fight through witch blood seat and tears to cone out on top with good results, which means that difficult parts of life are easier to handle, like you said, we are all suffering together!
    Not only that, but I am getting better and better at digesting a ton of information in a short amount of time, handling very stressful situations and I learned to embrace seemingly impossible problems that I face.

    I’ve been a mechanical engineer for 12 years. And I can say that it is very rewarding when there’s work. You get to tackle a lot of really interesting problems. You develop a very keen logical sense outside of your job in every day life.
    The drawback I found in engineering is that it can be volatile depending on the industry your in and that could lead to a lot of job switches sometimes and which can be difficult when you are rooted down.
    All in all, I still love engineering. Gives me a rewarding feeling when I solve a complex problem.

From a year as an Army combat engineer to 10 years as a town engineer shared between 12 small towns I gained a wide breadth of experience. In the 1990s, I gave back to my old university by mentoring senior design projects in bridge design.

    Yo, the argument about passing notes between each other is some real bullshit sometimes. There are people that only want to get from you but don't give anything in return ever. If you refuse to give them notes, you are said to be "bad colleague" when in real life you just simply value your work too much to feed the parasite in your class for their pleasure of being lazy.

    • @RiverTechJess

      Honestly, there was this one guy in my class that skipped every lecture and asked me for notes. I gave them to him because I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. But then he continued to not attend school and asked me for my notes again and I said no. I agree with you in that sense, I value my work so much and I’m not just going to hand it over for free

      honestly, after you get past all the math classes (and maybe some engineering classes) there isn't THAT much math.

    You must discipline your thinking to work through the problem. You must use the principles to solve the problem. You must control your emotions to solve the problem. And you must develops "cognitive endurance" or the ability to work for significant periods on solving the problem.

    I hated engineering at first not only was I not good at any topic but I did not actually enjoy it. I did it because my teacher told me to. I mean I am where do I start I was bad at maths, drawing, physics, you make it But when I sat down and actually look at the topic and break it down I actually like it . Although there’s something that I am not good at . I am drawn to it. I am still not good at practice and physics yet

    After 3yrs in undergrad I'm starting to regret not choosing a major in the engineering field or mathematics. I really love math and although I don't really love physics as much as I do for math it was still manageable for me back in the days. I even casually wake up in the morning and think about math and how different it would have been if I chose the math or an engineering degree. I came to a realization that I was denying my love for math that now I miss solving math problems. I feel like its too late now though, I'm 21 and just need one more year to finish the degree I am pursuing.

    After about 10 years working as an electrical engineer, I have became so burnt-out and tired of dealing with arrogant overconfident assholes, and playing the stupid office games, being put under tremendous time pressure, and getting broken crap dumped on me (all the time) that I gave up electrical engineering. It wasn't that the work was too difficult, it was the people who made my career miserable.
    My electrical engineering experience has been extremely competitive. Coworkers would literally waste hours of your time if it could save themselves 5 minutes.
    I never figured out how to crack the "people problem". I considered it to be a lost cause after 10 years and moved on.

      @jessstuart7495 6 лет назад +1

      I started out as a systems engineer doing a lot of matlab modeling for communication systems. Then I got into test engineering and hardware testing.
      With each job, I was kind of a victim of my own success. The harder I worked, the more others (coworkers and bosses) would apply pressure (less time, more difficult problems, etc) to see how much performance they could squeeze out. I got tired of being taken advantage of and decided I didn't need to put up with this crap anymore. I basically felt like I was a janitor, cleaning up other people's messes all the time. Work stress was really starting to negatively effect my health and family life. I pushed myself so hard, I began to experience adreinal fatigue, and my immune system was compromised. I was getting sick and felt exhausted all the time. I'm still trying to decide what career path I want to go down next. I can guarantee you, it will not be engineering.

    As an engineering graduate with two degrees (BS/MS), I HATE engineering. Worst decision I made in my life. She failed to mention that not all engineering degrees are equally rewardable nor are they made the same. My engineering degrees are from well accredited universities. However, I picked the worst most useless engineering, Civil Engineering with a MS in Environmental. Unless you have a well-paid internship or job lined up after graduation, don’t study engineering. There are so many engineer job titles that pay $50K or less. I make about $80K now, hate my supervisor and job working for the federal government, find my work incredibly dull and tedious and would not recommend it to my worst enemy. The only comfort I get from having chosen engineering at an accredited state university...is that it only cost me $7.5K in loans. If you hate engineering as a student, you will only hate it more as a professional.
