An Engineer Who Hates Engineering by engrtee(f): 3:54pm On Jan 18, 2017 |
i realy dont know if i am the only one with this issue. I applied for engineering because of the prestige and lucrative packages attached to the course. Telling my parents i wanted to be a writter would be suicide mission. I love writing short stories.poem.random thought .anything. School days was hell. I pushed through course work hoping to find a course that could click with me. On branch of engineering interest me. When i see a lot of people around school that seem ve enjoy the class. I ask myself : do i really belong here? At a point , i almost called it quit. But when i remember my dad would not be happy with that. I managed to hang on now i an an engineering graduate whose attitude about engineering ranges from indifference to hatred. I foot have any passion for anything related to engineering. How do i cope ? Pretend that i love the job when deep down i have it. I an currently terrible at engineering. What do i do ? |

engrtee: ur moniker says something different.. so i could say , if engineering in naija was at par with the rest of the world, u might still do it.. but here.. nothing to write home about.. i am an engineering graduate.. but i switched careers... now into HSE.. but i did a lot of stuff along the way.. recorded two songs, was a chef for a while, a facility manager, went into loans , became an executive assistant , did a little poetry, teach guitars ( still do), into cryptocurrencies.. bla bla bla ( under three years) my point is, u can do everything and anything u want to do.. write and be employed.. try other stuff.. the likes of plato , socrates , davinci were many things in one.. philosophers, musicians, engineers and artists.. why limit urself to ''writing''? 1 Like |

Engineering is fun, Its Engineering classes that are devilish, You could go into Management, become a Project Engineer or even a HR Engineer, or a infrastructural planner and get the juicy jobs with WHO,ICRC,DFID etc. All those calculus will learnt in class you hardly use except you are a research or design engineer, even as a design engineer you start as a draftsman. i know so many chartered Engineers(COREN) who work in big financial institutions. See your Engineering degree as another Key to open that success door, not certainly not the only key |
