lol yeah I'm an ME and have a long resume, I've done mostly design of some sort in various industries but a lot of machine design lately, because - naturally - there's a lot of that around here.
Manufacturing (as in Manufacturing Engineer) and quality just seem so .... boring, but a mechanical degree applies to so many fields you can do a LOT of different things.
Yeah I basically didn't know the importance of First Job so I didn't get a design job right out of school. I did liaison/"MRB" engineering at Boeing which is like watching painters paint, then after that couldn't get a design job so ended up in mfg. BLECH, process shit etc, so watching paint dry.
I switched to software as a fresh start that would get me back to problem solving but with creativity in the mix/satisfied, as well as less (basically no) geographic constraints and nice-to-haves like WFH, flexible hours etc.
