On Being an Engineer

They say that most of the working class works a job that they don't enjoy, simply because they feel they must. Apparently, part of being a grown up and living in the 'real world' is having to cope with working whatever job you can finagle in order to make ends meet, and one is most likely to dislike their job.

Well, if that's the case, then I consider myself blessed. Because, seriously guys, I LOVE what I do. I wont even try to explain what it is I do, because I've attempted to do so in many occasions and apparently the message doesn't carry over very clearly (Sabrina and Dina, do you guys STILL not understand what I do? lol). But it's enough to say that this job is challenging, eye-opening, rewarding, adventurous, and never ever boring. I love it. At a time when it's a huge blessing to even have a job at all, I feel spoiled by the fact that I've been blessed with not only a job, but one that I thoroughly enjoy. I can ALMOST say that I have zero complaints when it comes to this job of mine (ALMOST, because let's face it... my paycheck could use a little numerical upgrade...) but I seriously count myself as very very fortunate and cannot stop praising God from whom all blessings flow :)
