Accidental Engineer
Breaking The Ice
Take a long stride back into time….. Precisely 4 years….. I see myself at the entrance of a dream.
With gauntlet, strong and steady, I was all set for the journey. This sounds more like an allegory of an epic hero setting out an arduous path to conquer all odds to reach his goals……
Engineering, what I thought would be the ‘Proving Grounds’ for millions of dream catchers and achievers……..turned out to be a ‘Bucket full of crabs’. Uncertain and unsure, trying to surpass each other…..Where are they going…. NOWWHERE!!!!!
Almost four years into this ‘so-called’ professional field of engineering……. Couldn’t find one engineer among the breed I have been with. Blindfolded from the world which rides on proficiency and efficiency….. We are nothing but zombies in this land of professionalism.
Getting Killed By The Questions Like A Cancer
It’s like standing at the foot of a huge mountain….. Aiming to get to the peak…. BUT HOW?.... its not just the path that matters but there millions and millions of the other questions that pierce through the thin air shot right onto you…..
Its not the hard workers ground down here, it’s a smart man’s game. Now that’s how I define “Engineering”…..
Getting to the basics…. The first thing that can say, considering my past experience is…. “EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF”. No that’s how it goes….. You can never say when you get backstabbed or double crossed…. You won’t even know it just happens…. Buts it’s done yet….
WHO???.....WHAT???.....WHEN???.....WHERE???.....WHY???................................HOW??????...........
And it just won’t stop. It comes back over and over again….Time after time…. But its fun… Confused??....Well I’ll explain….Its like drinking beer……First you don’t like it’s taste…but later on you are like “ hey can I have some more”……
