I am a mechanical engineer for 22 years and pretty much studied 6 days a week to get through. My rig is a 2010 Rubi.

I've been a civil engineer (transportation) for 24 years (BS and ME degrees), planning and designing roads and highways so I can drive my Jeep elsewhere. I also pretty much studied 6 days per week to get through- an hour or two a day of exercise, even if it's just Frisbee or hoops with the buds, back then, helped me and my brain recoil from the homework. I have a 2010 Rubi that I love more than anything except my family.

I'm a Polymer/textile engineer double major from Georgia Tech, 2003. I made it through college because of mandatory study halls after baseball practice. I did all my work in there so I could play ball, drink beer, and chase women when not in there.

Only an Engineer can answer the question.....................


Is the glass half full, or half empty ?

What's even funnier this is not the first time a engineer started a thread like this

Neither, it's full. Half with liquid, half with gas (air). I'm not an engineer, I just play like I'm one.

I'm over our company's engineering dept. But don't have and engineering degree...

its always full. Even with no solid or liquid in it, there is air. And here's my smart ass touch on it. You don't think air is valuable? Let me choke you for a minute. I think we'll agree the glass is very full with precious air.

The glass is 2X the size it needs to be.

Congrats to those that have worked so hard to earn their engineering degree. I'm just a dumb plumber.

10 years as a fluid power engineer, but my degree is in business and physics.
I have designed a built just about everything on my 08.
