What she made in 15 yrs would have taken her 30 yrs if not more to make the same amount. What's even more disturbing is that you guys couldn't figure out that she wasn't very smart. This is a reason why people really question what you learn with a degree.

I think we came up with the solution to just lie on your resume.

I know some people go to school to major in something they're bad at too. There was some guy that was really good at science, but ended up majoring in english. People made fun of him for his choice, but when he got his foot in the door, he just couldn't stop writing scientific papers. He...

I was just curious! =) I ask so many questions, because I get excited easily.

Doesn't this happen often? Like some one gets assigned a project and fails the project, but points fingers at everyone else, then gets a new project? Then they get into management after failing twice right and being the best finger pointers.

Thanks for clearing that up! What would you say are the best austrian engineering companies. The only big companies I know would be wienerbergen and andritz. I hope I spelled them right. Mein deutsch ist schlecht.

It was the big yellow one. I think I'm just going to take out a huge loan and try to start my own business tbh. I had a job in sales at one time. The manager was like, "I can do calculus, and that's why I'm the manager, I have a business degree." I told him nicely that I could do calculus...

Thanks for clearing that up. My german is pretty bad. It's still impressive that 60% of the power comes from hydroplants. What's the price of gas there? In some parts of the US, gas is just $1.99.

I'm a woman, and not caring to get into politics. No reason to discriminate though.

Idk, I've met some pretty weird doctors too. Just look up the trefoil knot bagel.

It was the other way around tbh. Started when some one said ham radios are basic, and school was easy back in those days.

So you wouldn't trust yourself doing CPR, because you don't have a degree stating that you can do it? You don't think heat loss is important to watch out for if some one gets a big cut? You can probably come up with numerous ideas about how to help some one off basic physics...

Seems like if people had to pay some crazy amount of money to take a test, then it would bring up the importance of your education. Too many people believe that their degree means they have a better education than everyone. People think water treatment engineers are no better than waste...

I thought the accelerated ones were kind of jokes. Like where they promise to teach you quantum and fluid mechanics in one month to become an engineer. As a scientist yourself, if you strongly believed that some one was going to die without immediate help, would you not attempt to help them...

It seems like the entire education system is messed up. To me, it seems like it would be better for me to lie on a resume, after some of the things I've seen. Isn't it illegal to call yourself an engineer without have passing the PE or something like that? I was wondering why some schools...
