I've worked with a bunch of people who know programming languages very well that are terrible developers. Things must be different south of the border, I only know a couple people that work from home, everyone else (even consultants/contractors) are in an office. Most places here want the developers in the office for meetings, etc.

I love my job 99% of the time. I am currently assisting in the development of the worlds most efficient natural gas turbine it's extremely challenging, but I get to use the most advanced cnc machines, CMMs, vacuum furnaces and cad cam software the industry has to offer. The only thing I dislike about my job are engineers. At one point in time I use to think being an engineer was a feat now I realize most of them have no fkn clue what they are doing or how to apply anything they learned in the workplace.

The only major downsides are unpaid overtime if you're salary, studios are clustered up in Texas, Maryland, California, and Washington, and pay can vary wildly depending on who you work for (bonuses? royalties? nothing?). |

I didn't know what to do with myself. I'm not smart but I work hard. I hated a lot of things and didn't like many things. I liked money, cutting things, fixing things. I figured if I worked hard in school I could do something in the medical field where I could make good money, cut bones and flesh, and put them back together. Well I started as a dentist, liked it but didn't love it so now I am starting an Oral Maxillofacial surgical residency. I wanted something where I could always be in demand no matter what the world may be like. So I always point people towards the medical field, the road is long but well worth it in the end, and you will always find a job.

I'm also located in SoCal, and i'm currently working Real estate industry in the REO sector as an escrow coordinator. I was wondering how I can get started in the Commercial Real Estate appraisal industry. What sort of licenses/experience do I need? After doing some research online, the pay seems great, and I do have a 4 year degree since I see that it is a minimum qualification for the job.

im a starting dental technician. I make molds, and go out and deliver/receive the molds/impressions from dentists. You're always doing something and always busy. Sometimes it gets really stressful but i figure that's with any job.

I'm currently working for a Vendor Management company doing payroll/billing and it seems to be ok 98% of the time. It pays the bills, not a lot of stress, and not super busy. At the same time, I'm going to school for a career in Health IT very slowly.
