Beans, rice, and lentils are my staples for lunch and dinner.

Do they taste good?


I mean, rice and beans tastes like rice and beans. Most of it is going to depend on how you season it as you cook it.

Lentils have an... earthy taste. I like them, but I could see others not liking them. But really, it's going to depend what you eat it with and how you season.

Ive never actually gotten a steak at more expensive steakhouses. I've always gotten the pork and lamb dishes and they're really good at those places

Electrical engineer with Masters and I started with 76k out of college. 90k 3 years later. I've noticed others in my field start around 60-70k. I'm in Colorado

I feel like a lot of the non software engineering majors can start of low and the ceiling isn't as high though.
It always seems like the software guys getting those 100k+ stating salary and stuff. But obviously there are software guys who start out really low as well.


Youre an outlier. Ive got a few friends who did engineering (mostly chemical. A few mechanical or civil) and some went back to school for their masters the others are underpaid.

The one friend whos doing the best makes about $80k a year and got his degree in psychology. He is a very smart person and basically my encyclopedia on human nature and behaviors lol. He does sales for a software development/cloud storage company.

Engineering and computer science is one of those field where you can make $60-$80k annually but its rare. For every other field that you can make $100k and over, you start around $30-$40k. Then again theres always exceptions to the rules and some oddballs that make $80k when they studied a subject that wont let you nail a shingle without going to grad school first.

Funny enough, the 3 people (friends dads) I know and have met who make $250k a year and live in a mansion, one works in sales for a medical equipment company and is super boss of the west coast, one is a high level exec for at&t, while the other was a cpa and worked on Wall Street. Ironic because those arent STEM degrees.

It's really not rare to be making like 60-80k starting out in an engineering degree...

I just think the ceiling is low for the non software engineers

9/80 sucks because 99% of the time you've got shit to do on that "off friday" and you never actually get off, especially if you work on projects that collaborate with others outside your organization. The only people who actually get the day off are HR (who pioneer the idea) because they'd rather the whole place burn down than actually alter their schedules to support the business.
Luckily the outside organization I work with have the same 9/80 schedule we have, but I understand what you mean.

And ya, working the off Friday can be shit but I try my best to not have to

I do 9/80,

First week is 4 days of 9 hours, Friday off
Second week is 4 days of 9 hours and 8 hours on Friday.

So a 3 day weekend every other week. But I agree, going more than 9 hours is difficult. The 9 is difficult as is already
