This thread was over on page 3. This is all nonsense now. I can agree to disagree. This isnt about engines anymore. I dont need advice thanks but no thanks. I know alot of engineers myself. Being overeducated is not a bad thing. I want the PhD for myself. Alot of people say experience before a graduate program. I want to get it done and enjoy it. I like school.
 
Since your PhD is several years away and this thread will certainly be dead then, let me go ahead and give you my "I told you so". This is just like a bad relationship. You can't see it yourself because you're in it but everyone around you can see it clearly. Just put the 40 and bitter thing in your head and see if it takes hold because he's absolutely right.

Fair enough, but one last thing: you do need advice; you'll always need advice. It's easy to feel invincible when you're on top of the world while at school, but other people do know some things, and a wise person listens and learns.

You should stay at school and get a PhD if it's for fun and personal satisfaction - I wholeheartedly support that. I'm just trying to point out that it isn't a ticket to the good life.

I love to teach, by the way - it's one of the most satisfying parts of my CTO duties. When I think back, the teachers I revere the most are the ones who taught me so much more than the subject at hand - those were the people who really changed my life. In the classroom they call it a lesson, out of a classroom they call it advice. It's all the same. If you want to be a great teacher, then you're going to be giving a lot of advice. If you're going to be giving all that advice, best learn how to take some too - you'll grow so much faster that way.

Learn from the mistakes of others too, not just your own. I didn't invent the wheel, I just used the ones that came with my car.
 
I'm not bitter at all. I get along great with everyone. I got bashed by everyone this whole time. I dont care what anyone here thinks. I am charismatic and well liked in my school. I volunteer for everything and do my best to help everyone. I spend more time helping friends with homework than i spend on my own. Let me blow your girlfriends engine up and let you listen to her yell at you for a week on vacation. Then get back and badmouthed for a while. Leave it alone. Its nobody's business. Stop with the life lessons. I do not need them. Some of you mean well. Some of you are jumping on the bandwagon. Seriously let it alone. Things arent as they seem. Im mad about the engine blowing up give me a break.

The easiest thing to do is just stop replying if this is all settled and you don't want/need the advice.
 
One lesson I havent learned yet that i have been getting crap about forever is my temper. I have poor impulse control and tend to fly off the handle sometimes.


really? :smashfreakB:








live and learn my friend.......the best "xxxxx" anything in their field is the person who is not afraid to ask for help


Im no engineer, but I did spend a bit of time in school (9 years)...and I know WHEN to ask for help and WHEN to accept constructive criticism



degrees mean NOTHING....its the LICENSE that counts :cool2:
