Hi /pol/
It has come to my realization that i am in the wrong field of work. I graduate my Bsc in nursing next month, but i regret that decision.
Horrible work hours, horrible pay, horrible coworkers (Seriously, working among women as a man is not as fun as it might seem like). Meanwhile i am daily looked down upon on and yelled at by patient relatives, because i don't have enough time to do my work. This is making me apathetic.
I am therefore into getting an engineering degree instead, more particular a chemical engineering degree. Any engineers here who knows the cons/pros of your field? Or is this field of work not worth getting into?

Bump because worthwhile.

>chemical engineering
You'll end up working in the middle east
>electrical engineering
You'll end up working for your country's ministry of defence
>mechanical engineering
You'll end up not working
>civil engineering
You'll end up working for your local council

Engineering at an FH in germany seems easy enough. Many of my friends do it and only the stoners have problems.
My father is an electrical engineer who has trouble finding jobs because he is too old and demands too much pay.
I wouldn't get my hopes up, the market is flooded with engineers at this point.

Nursing and engineering seem like two fields really far from the other.
What led you to that decission? Maybe you'll regret engineering too?

Which job market isn't?

I remember that in the unemployement office of my city they had a board with the "high-request/low-interest" jobs that were places like graveyards where nobody wanted to work and they had always jobs aviable.
That board doesn't exist anymore.

In Norway? A lot of the trades needs people. Health sector has shortage of nurses and stuff for example. The trades will always be in demand for another 20 years at least

I don't know, but what I meant was you have to be really fucking good to be able to compete with autists who built their own radio with 10, their own OS with 15 and their own drugs with 20.
It's just that I don't know how good your engineering and math skills are, but as a nurse chances are they suck really hard.

Mechanical engineer here. This is accurate.

They are, but so are my interests. I have always had an interest in the human body, and in math/science. I can't work without the "problem solving aspect". Nursing is all about those soft values, not really getting anything concrete done. This is driving me crazy, as i have discovered about myself that i need that aspect of my work life, where i feel like i have accomplished a goal or a project.

surgery, dental work, making limbs and shit

I dont have the grades to get into med school, otherwise working towards being a surgeon has always been a dream.
