    20.

    i hate electricity hahah...omg dealing with circuits and stuff like that is a nightmare lol.

    i don't really know, i really enjoy our macine tools class.

    for Edmonton, i think Constuction is the way to go. it's a growing area, and jobs for that career is still avaliable.

    Cant say much because I'm studying mech engineering to get a lead fab job on a race team or something along those lines.....

    i want somthing that you really would enjoy doing for the +30 years or so from now...not being on the computer or sitting in an office for 24/7...i wanna be able to get my hands dirty and jump on the field...with my co-workers but not always be outside and become a greasmonkey lol.

    started a topic career choices:

    career choices:

    Alright let me start by this, i am currently enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering Technologist program at Nait(college). First year, i am doing really good in everything, but Statics. i just can't get it, i am having a hard time even with the basic stuff. we have a midterm tomorrow and i really don't know anything. and i didn't get a good mark when i did my fist midterm. i didn't pass it...the problem is that if we're gonna go further in statics, which we will probably do (dynamics, and stress)...i don't see my self going any where with this. i was thinking about switching programs... my dad( Senior Chemical Engineer) told me to go for either instrumentation or Constuction Engineering...which i did some reaserch on and had nothing to do with Static and i am really happy about it. i just don't see my self enjoying doing something for the next 20 to 30 years from now...it really feels bad when your average for everything is more than 70% and you fail one course which is statics.

    what do you guys think about construction, or instrumentation engineering technology programs?

    i just don't wanna deal with statics, dynamics or any of that crap at all...i was even thinking about going to petroleum engineering untill my dad told me it's worse than MEC lol.

    rant/ lol :(

    it's almost 10pm right now and i don't even know if i should study for the midterm tomorrow....
Working...
