So, am I crazy, or is the entire engineering profession a midwit trap? This industry is so much more complicated than, say, Healthcare, for example. And yet, it is much less remunerated. Why? Are engineers mostly just suckers who trade their employers their excess value in exchange for a steady low paycheck?
I'm unironically considering going to work for a municipality to make the same money for less work. What the fuck is going on in clown world? Do I need to jump to capital project management? I know senior guys who make $140k, and yet are responsible for $3m-$4m dollars of annual company revenue. What gives? Why can't I get a piece of that, huh?
