Default Re: Off topic: If you were 18 again?

Also a mechanical engineer but have been blessed enough to be in the automotive power train industry. I've designed injector pumps and turbochargers for all major passcar and commercial vehicle OEMs. I couldn't think of doing anything else. I am now a engineering supervisor and head drawing checker and love my job 90% of the time. Things are changing with the drive for electrification, which will eventually impact my field. I am glad to be close to retirement so that I don't have to deal with that transition.

Remember, 95% of all electric cars are still on the road. The other 5% made it home.
