I am definitely an undercard guy when it comes to work. Nothing prestigious or even worth mentioning, retail, that sort of thing.

No matter though as i retired from the Navy after 20 years, am divorced with no bills so all my meaningless job income just goes into savings, beer, junk of amazon or a combination of those 3.

Working hard and the like is way over rated. Paying your bills off is much more important as it gives you freedom.

I was off work for about the last year and a half because I was tired of working and wanted to just do what i wanted to do. Funny that I went back to the same job and got a raise, lol. Will do that for a year or two and then goof off again for another year or so.

I can do this because i paid off my bills and live within my means. Its not hard. Start with that one bill you are within striking range of and get rid of it,. now use that payment and add it to the next one within reach and so one.

Pretty painless that way and in no time you will be drinking beer and miscing on a thurdays afternoon. Called in sick today because i had a flat on my motorcycle and needed to get it to the shop.

Wow nice story. Accounting is generally regarded as boring, but a great job to get into sine the pay is pretty high. Do you think getting into accounting was worth it?

Corporate finance.

Awesome gig that the kids today don't seem to want to get into. Everyone wants to be an engineer when the real money is in finance. If I was some kind of math nerd I'd either write code or be a quant for an investment firm. If you're smart but not a math nerd, corporate finance is the shizzle.

Holy crap dude, Satan's huge crew.

Anyone can do the work. Doing the work is easy. Landing the work is hard. That being said, doing the design work and understanding it is a prerequisite to advancing, so you can't ignore that either. so work on being well rounded, start networking and attending social events and join engineering societies (not sure if you are in US, but here that is ASCE and stuff like that). I am part owner of a 50 person firm. We have 50 people who can do the engineering work. We only have a handful that can do the rest. So I graduated 18 years ago (40yo) and now I don't do any design work but am responsible for my company's business development and strategic planning. So I network, play golf, drink beer, chase projects and get them under contract, and make big picture decisions. The design work, once under contract, I pass to one our design teams depending on the fit and everyone's workload.
Thanks for the great comment. Pretty helpful since this is coming from somebody who has already 'made it'. Yeah, I think I would join those engineering societies, but I think I can when I'm 18+. Since I don't think they are all that serious at my current age (I'm in UK by the way).

What do you mean by you "network"? Also, how long have you had this job for? Be honest, do you enjoy it? Would you still choose this job to progress at over anything else when you were 17? (17, because that's when you start making real career choices, well maybe 16).

Thanks!!

Oh, lots of consultants on here!! With the A-levels that I've chosen, I could potentially become a consultant. Do you think that's something to check out? It's meant to be pretty stressful, but a decent academic route. Depends how far you go into it ofcourse.
You think its the best job ever? From the age of 16, what route did you take to get where you are now? Thanks.
