| Well it is about time! After leaving my internship in December of 2004, (I graduated in May of 2004 but stayed at the internship for a couple of months for experience) I finally got offered a job at this respectable IT Firm. Even though I am happy to have this awesome job, I do feel old at a mere 22 years of age. Anyone else in my situation? :confused: |

Congratulations on your new job. I'm a bit younger than you, but I have one more academic term of my program to do, and I already feel the pressure for immediate career success when I get out.
In my opinion, if your position is one where you're not "locked in", and/or is something you enjoy doing - you're doing damn good, esp for 22. :) |

Actually its a great job. For the first 6 months its research analysis (the company is small, but growing very uickly and need to get its research up to date), at this point i am making 35-40K. After 6 months, i am going into drawing services engineering which pays close to 45k. The job is fun. 8-5pm, 1hr lunch break, sick days, personal days, lots if breaks in a very relaxed environment, the office views are beautiful and the people are simply awesome.
Perhaps the only gripes i have are.
1. I am the youngest person in the office. Everyone is 26-60 years of age.
2. Its a long commute. I wake up at 6am to reach the job at 8. I leave at 5 but because there is lots of traffic, i get home at around 6:30pm.
Those are 2 reasons i feel old :(. It sucks coming home and not having anytime to do anything in the weekdays :( Sometimes i feel so lost :confused: |
I am graduating Mechanical Engineer this spring. Does your job use Pro-E or any Computer aided design prog I am set for grad school unless a job pops up.:confused: |
