Waterloo Eng (6 4-month internships at various companies). Working here for a year now.

Job is very technical. I like it technical, I sit at a desk all day creating engineered drawings with the occasional site visit.
Easy stuff for a millennial like me, plus I can shit post on BIZ.

Pay is below average but I live at home so can’t complain. In this for the experience.

Hoping crypto makes me the big bucks.

I'm in Canada so running a boiler is regulated by individual provincial boiler branches. They all follow SOPEEC guidelines to some extent as far as certification goes. What this means in practice is doing a class for your 4th class ticket followed by field hours which varies by province (which is not the lowest point in the system, just the average starting point.) then a combination of self study or formal courses on welding, pipe fitting, human resource management, code, electrical theroey, some chemestry, various physics subjects. The Reeds Marine engineering series of books is a good starting point. As is the NALCO water treatment book and the B&W steam book. Follow this with exams and more firing time in a specific job position and minimum boiler size.
It all varies by class with a first class needing 8 exams and 3 years as a shift supervisor generally.

I get paid good, own my own house, deal with water treatment, sync turbine generators into the power grid, open giant steam valves, climb on piping 50 feet in the air, dodge gouts of fire blowing at me and usually dodge orange hot molten smelt and various liquors that spray at me. Also help and co-ordinate my co workers efforts and troubleshoot.

It takes a lot of balls and its hard work mentally and physically a lot of the time. But I still can't talk to girls without getting nervous and scared.
At least the job is entertaining.

I started this job while I was in community college because it allowed me to go to school during the day and work nights.

I am hoping to find a weekend job so I can study 5 days a week because as a physics major, this shit is very challenging but I love it.

I enjoy the actual job but sitting in traffic for 2 hours/day is slowly killing me. But I'm putting over 50% my gross income into savings, mostly this crypto dip right now. Hopefully I'll only have to work for a year or two more or whenever crypto recovers.

>>9639697
Yeah well you actually have a social compassion for your people. If I lose my job and get sick without health insurance, I go bankrupt. A lot of our companies have you work 50+ hours and the vacation can range from nothing to great, but usually 15 days unless you live in a big tech company.

Also, no white cities over 200k population. So if you care at all about recent art scenes, you get to live with brown people and crime.

But yeah, the salary is a lot better, and the land is often cheaper if you like suburbia. Most rural areas have shit/nonexistent tech industry.

>>9640263
Visited a Top Business School in Europe (ranked in the Top 10). However I am lazy and stupid so it was a shitshow my whole studies.

After that, I think I got lucky.

>VC Fund: I applied exactly in the right week, since normally they only take grad students for this position and I was undegrad, but they were short staffed so they needed someone instantly.

>PE Fund: The Managing Director of the fund admired my Boss at the VC Fund, so I got invited. Even though I performed really bad the whole application process (4 rounds), I somehow got the job.

The funny thing is, I work really bad and the stuff that I do is shit, but so far nobody noticed.

USA healthcare is cheap if you aren't poor. I pay $17.50/m for my insurance with free preventative, and its like a couple grand max I'd have to pay if I actually go seriously sick or injured. Now if you're poor and don't have insurance you essentially don't get healthcare. And if you get sick you go bankrupt or just give up and die of easily preventable diseases.

Imo all investments are fueled by "greater fools," real estate and stock valuations are all essentially more of ponzi scheme than based on the actual value of the underlying asset, the thing is with crypto as apposed to stocks and real estate is that 99% of people have yet to buy in on it.

>>9640768
It's a great profession. But if anyone tells you it's easy to get into they are full of shit. The market for thirds and fourths is hilariously over saturated and as a consequence getting a position without specific experience is hard as fuck, and it has been driving wages down in some sectors.
Second and first classes have a lot of options by virtue of a limited amount of ticket holders, but the problem is getting a job where you can get burn time to get to that point. If you already have a job lined up I would go for it depending on the plant. The work itself varies a lot so that is nice. Right now I'm in a pulp mill, but I have done basic bitch SAGD, sawmill, coal fire power plant, some commissioning and building operations. That covers a nice variety of once through boilers, thermal fluid plants, high pressure watertubes, firetube hot water or low pressure steam, electric, and some ammonia/glycol refrigeration systems. Each one of those falls under the umbrella of operations, but were completely different from each other in scope and duties.

Job has it's downsides, but it's engaging since HVAC guys do a lot of everything (plumbing, sheet metal, carpentry, and control wiring/low-voltage electric). I only do new construction for custom homes (7000sqft+ houses/condos for the most part), so I mostly just tell other guys what to do and make sure they're doing it correctly. Laid back job, I like it.

>>9643498
Not exaggerating, if anything I'm downplaying it from the last while. Last 8 months the plant has filled with h2s and dimethyl sulfide on a nightly schedule, package boiler melted into a pile of slag, smelt burning a hole through the primary windbox on the recovery boiler and blowing through onto the spout floor like a fucking fireworks fountain. And then the constant and sudden flange leaks on white liquor piping in the recaust area. Things are way better on coal and gas burners compared to hog and turpentine fired boilers and black liquor recovery boilers. Things have been pretty bad lately. I wish I worked at Exxon right about now.

Digital marketing jobs are quickly dying as we speak. Digital marketing got huge because of Facebook and illegal data mining that was going on for the past 6 years. Now that laws are being put into place all over the US and EU to stop data mining (websites bombarding you with new terms of service and cookie agreements that you have to click accept to). revenue in digital market will exponentially decrease. The tech Nasdaq bubble that we're in now was caused by data mining. once the bubble burst. All that money will pull out and digital marketers will have no source of income. It used to be that you could make a dummy website that people visited and data mine all day long. Then create a ledger with thousands of people info (address, phone#) and sell it to normie businesses. This can't be so easily done anymore.

Majored in mathematics, only minored in computer sciences. Got an internship at a software firm and decided I liked programming, so I went whole ham into it. Nothing prepares you for programming more than just doing it, getting more real experience in any way you can. Textbooks and classes don't prepare you.

You also have to be a self-starter. Someone who can be given an abstract problem and find an above-and-beyond solution without needing too much help. Fucking pajeets are the opposite. You work with a lot of Indians in the CS field, and none of them can do shit unless you spell it out step by step. The second anything goes off-script or any ounce of creativity or free-thought is needed, a pajeet will be utterly lost and ask you "pls sir how 2 doing this part need instructions pls advise sir".

After the internship I got scouted by a startup in California, so I left the upper midwest and never looked back. Been at the same place ever since, though the startup was bought out and now I work for a large company technically. But my team is still roughly the same and we still have that startup attitude. No dress code, free soda/snacks, arcade machine and ping pong table in the office. Most importantly the people are great, anime/game nerds just like me. I also never work directly with customers. feelsgoodman

To be honest I don't really consider myself an expert in crypto by any means. Holding BTC, LTC, BCH, XRP, BTCP.

I'm in the camp where I just plan on holding for years (until 2021 at least). If we really do get another boom, then great. If it all goes to zero that sucks, but at least I've only invested 20k or so all told.

I haven't done any blockchain dev, but I'm excited to see its applications OUTSIDE OF currency. Distributed information with high resistance to tampering will make waves in the healthcare IT space I think. Right now it's tough to share patient charts across state or even county lines. NwHIN is a start but I think blockchain tech is the next step.

I do know a lot of coworkers who are huge into crypto. At the same time, my workplace is more techie-heavy than the average, obviously because it's a software company. So I'm sure my floor (R&D) is skewed in that regard. The other normie floors (sales, marketing, support) don't have much crypto buzz at all. Most of them have probably heard the term Bitcoin but have no idea what it is, or consider it the new Beanie Babies for techies.

Can I get some advice anons, I've finished a trades program at a college a couple of months ago, I've been having trouble finding an apprenticeship. However this time being a NEET has led me to think that more money can be made from doing easier work.. I'm starting to think the trades are a meme and I should go into something else since I live in a first world country and have access to education..

I don't know, probably not, but it depends on what province you are in i suppose and what you are after. I know a few engineers that got their third done, or went the other way and got their mechanical engineering after working as a second.
Seems an odd route to go to me starting over somewhat in a tangentially related field. But it does drive home the difference between something working on paper and how it actually works in practice. I think the biggest benefit is if you are in a management position it can get you some respect from your apes a lot of the time.

MD/PhD student. I do some work for the military (for dutchfags, look up ''werkstudent defensie''). I get poorfag parents money from the state, my job at the military, part-time job as a phebotomist (drawing blood) at the uni medical center I attend. I ask the patients if I can draw an additional tube for my PhD project.
After I graduate and also get my PhD, I'll probably stay a physician for a while. Free education, no debt, roughly 70k eurobucks in crypto and 14k cash. Motorcycle and car are worth 3k.
Physician pay sucks donkey dick in the Netherlands, that's why so many physicians leave. With a PhD, I can expect roughly 70k eurobucks per year as a physician internal medicine. That's before 52% income tax lmao

theres just a ton of little things you have to learn about applying it to specifically financial data which has to occur before you start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and these secrets are typically well guarded.

I work like 48hrs/week
You get paid 145k by working half a week? I'm guessing 12hr shifts then.

>>9653508
I average out to 40 hours a week. One week is 41 hours and the next week is 36 (+ another 3 hours overlap with my assistant pharmacy manager). And yeah, we do 12 hour shifts on weekdays. If I did 48 hours a week, I'd be banking around $170k a year fuuuck.

>>9653508
My goal is to semi-retire. I'd love to be able to work prn in the pharmacy just 15-20 hours a week. And then spend the rest of my time traveling or pursuing my hobbies.

Hopefully my crypto stack can retire me by 2020.

>>9653895
We're all holding out for that hope, hodl until 2021 or so

>>9653895
You could theoretically do that now desu. It depends on how much income you're willing to live off of and finding an employer that'll let you come back after 6 months absence. But I know that's near impossible with the current pharmacy market.
