I've been installing automotive glass for the past 8 years. It's ok and the pay is pretty good. Every once in a while I get the pleasure of doing a windshield that has been smashed by some poor pedestrians body, blood and all. That poo poo is gross.

considering we have to take seven 5 hour exams and log thousands of experience hours to become licensed, yeah it's pretty much rear end-gently caress territory

Now with kinder, gentler, machine gun hand!
Get a job as a security guard in some boring office building or such on the night shift. You'll basically get paid (lovely) to do nothing 99% of the time.

Did that for a few years in my inter-education period. As far as poo poo jobs go you can do a whole lot worse.

Avoid condos like the plague though.

AutoCAD (or Revit these days) doesn't do any life safety checks. that's up to you, your engineer, and a city reviewer to go through it manually.

And honestly it's not like life and death most times. Most of my time is making sure it's wheelchair accessible and waterproofed so the building doesn't flood and cause a lawsuit

One day, you'll learn what people with your training make at private companies instead of universities. You'll cry a little and wonder how you can make the jump to industry.

Me too and its awesome

Did a lot of research as an undergrad and wanted to be a microbiologist. Got into grad school and one morning my head popped off the pillow and I thought I dont want to be someones lab bitch for another 6 years for pennies just for the privelege of begging for grant money my entire life. A year later I was doing my hospital rotations in the lab and making twice as much fresh out of college.
