Default I am now finally an Engineer!!!!!

went to school full time for 5 years (failed like hell the first year(too much partying)) and busted my rear end studying and now it finally paid off, i been working in my field for a week now and not only am i making about 10X more than what i did in my pervious job but i actually like my new job. i still recive my bachelor degree on March 19th but the company i'm with now confirmed my status with my school before hiring me. ps i am a mechanical engineer with a little architecture engineering knowlage too (thanks to my dad)

Congrats! I'm sure it was hard work but everything worthwhile usually is. If I were younger I would do the same thing. We will need more engineers in the future.

Congrats! Didn't do so well my first semester in Mechanical Engineering either.. In Design core at the moment while taking some CAD classes. Still undecided on Graphic Design or Mechanical Engineering. Glad to hear you like it though!
