    I am very very confused.

    Yo, it sounds like you would like systems or industrial engineering. These tend to focus on efficiency in industrial systems. Although there are plenty of other areas within systems engineering. Right now I am about to start my second semester of my second year in Systems and Control...

    Any engineers here?

    Systems and Control Engineer in my sophmore year, yes it's hard and it's very important to be interested in the type of engineering you choose and not just go along with your friends. There are also a lot of "weed out the weak" courses you will have to take in the beginning, some of which may...

    Calling All Engineers

    i think some people are confusing engineers with technicians. For example, a civil engineer may visit a construction site to go oversee the production, but it's not like he is going to be one of the guys carrying around steal beams.

    Judging Mindsets?

    If you walk into a room and instantly think to yourself "everyone is judging me, looking at my faults", would the correct thing to say to yourself be" "no everyone is not judging you, don't be paranoid" or "who cares if they are?" or something else...?

    The Realm of The Real Spirit

    don't understand... Its always seemed apparent that people give away money to the poor or in order to feel good and wanted. In turn they would also not be the target of yet another social sniper. For example, I go to a boarding school where we go to chapel, in which plates are passed around...

    Getting Respect

    These kids at my high school are not mature at all. They are pretty pathetic but i still want their respect. They may not be worth my time as friends but i'm not looking for enemies. Another thing is that they don't respect each other either, its not just me.
