this job market has me questioning my entire self worth and whether I should just an hero myself
>>17079084You truly should if it is a matter of pride for you to not enter those paths which return to farming
>>17079095Like shipbuilding?
Question for all the people living in civilised countries: why don't you just join a trade? Trade seems to pay well enough, it's stable, unlikely to be automated any time soon and not sedentary. If I were living in the west, I'd totally become an electrician or a welder or something. t. jeet math grad
Got my first job in EE designing substationsIf my autistic ass is employed you can be too
are patents worth anything if you are a newgrad? Should I write it down in my CV?
You know what? I am glad AI destroyed programming. Now if I need to use some numerical package I don't have to spend hours going through documentation and setting up tests and wait days for response on forums. If some faggot decided to make API overly complicated because of his autism or whatever, it stopped being my problem.
Achievement unlocked: Quit your job in the first week.Swag.

Not a regular in these threads, seems like it's mostly crying about the state of things (understandable) but how come I never see anyone mention mining engineering? If you live in US/CA/AUS it seems like a good way to make a lot of money if you can handle the lifestyle of being in isolated places (which scientific autists here should be attracted to?). Later in your career there seems to be opportunities to go into mining consulting or finance, which might look like a more "typical" role in an urban center. When I went to uni I hadn't even heard of it.
>>17079440Because all of us have already made our beds. The average age here is like 30 years old with a combined years of experience of about 5.

>>17079451>The average age here is like 30 years old 74% are under 30 and around half are 25 or under
>>17079555I doubt /sci/ is that retarded to put their actual age
I solved all of math. What career path do you recommend?
>>17079555>tfw 37 but look like I am 17What should I put in?
>>1707955574% are vain lying rapidly ageing millenials
>>17079461Client wants to add a connection to the grid - I design it around a bunch of constraints - civil engineers build it if my boss is happy my design won't kill anybody5 or so years of that and I can go for chartership and hopefully never have to worry about job security again
