You are a life saver with this videos man, thank you for this. Im from Ecuador and i was really lost after graduating , we are really underpaid here , thanks to your videos i now know i can confidently capacitate myself in the skills i lack to persue a better job in other countries

[@atharvac13]

Every mech newbie/aspirant should watch your videos

[@icy1806]

do you know about Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior? Philippians 1:6 “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.”

[@mahidaparthsinh9386]

I am also doing a job in electronics industry and I feel most of the things you said are related to my work. One thing I learned working in a corporate that I want to share with you is that " Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." I hope this lesson may help you to get rid of phycho people who work with you.

You are such a gem! You literally spoke my experience in this industry

[@Tim6-mq1hu]

This is a great video! It’s good that you and other mechanical engineer KZbinrs share their experience with entering the workforce for the first time. The culture shock one gets from transitioning from college to a company must be huge, maybe even if you had internship experience. One definitely doesn’t learn everything they need for their first job during college or even with internships (although it helps); but companies know that. With their first job, the engineer starts to grow as a professional, build a skillset, expand their network, and learn more about the industry they are in, and learn what they do and don’t like in engineering.

[@rohitbhosle7404]

Very accurate description of Mechanical engineers daily routine in industries. Every Aspiring Mechanical engineer should watch this video

[@gdadimi149]

This just comes to show how practical engineering in industry should be more of a focus in universities world wide. In my opinion, might even be beneficial to make engineering apprentice ships a must in bachlor and masters degrees.

[@taham6757]

i feel this while studying rn for finials then how its to work 😭

[@billytam8308]

I enjoyed seeing the perspectives from a mechanical engineer. I work in a small company and worked with engineers, proejct management, purchasing, procurement, quality assurance, our suppliers and our vendors. It was helpful to see how these functional roles need to communicate and collaborate together to deliver products to market

[@melisaalfonso471]

I just started my first job ever as an engineer, and this was very helpful. Thank you for the content!

[@tejaskalyan]

Your de-stress to my job hunting period ❤ love your work. Love from Bengaluru, India 😊

[@EngineerIanY]

Man I do engineering for a company I’m 17 no college or any school taken for it I’ve learnt a lot but still got lots to learn it’s not insane engineering but a lot of work goes into small things and I couldn’t believe how relatable your story is to mine glad I’m not the only one

[@HehBe-f4z]

what do you exactly do ?

[@mr67927]

Yea, engineering is vast. Can you narrow it down? But I do understand anyone can just go learn a skill from another person or books or the internet or even ask questions. More power to you!!

[@RiccardoLrnz]

as an architecture student interested in engineering i have to thank you

[@eduardopatino899]

Truly super useful and undertated !!!

[@BrianGutierrez-ek5nb]

Your videos have helped me understand the realities of being an engineer. I see that a large part of the role involves contributing to capitalism by designing cost-effective and efficient production methods that increase the revenue of these big companies we are working for. Are there any creative jobs in the mechanical engineering field or is it all just maximizing revenue?

[@oliversimmons988]

I think civil engineering in the public sector: theoretically designing people centered systems to make life better. Think water treatment systems, electrical grids, etc

very informative video....

[@mhrmidbencher]

Your videos are truly fantastic! I'm currently in my third year of mechanical engineering and want to pursue a career as a freelance mechanical engineer. Is that a feasible career path? Could you possibly create a video discussing this topic? Your insights would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

@@AYNWSA89 well several years but out of the blue I motivated myself to start engineering 2yrs ago... Biology and chemistry didn t really lead to anything sadly.. so to everyone who think they re too old to start studying again; don t, even at 30 you can start a new field and it s absolutely marvelous, new friends, lots of new concepts, dedication and discipline, new opportunities ! : )

Well, I’m from Jersey and I’m also going to college for Mechanical Engineering, I also wish to be in Aerospace but no good colleges with that major near me. I’ve researched it and have come to the conclusion that most Aerospace companies will gladly hire a MechE so good luck my friend

I went through that with a graduate student. This one goes back to the story about the employee who'd step into his cubicle and tell him he's doing everything wrong. I learned that lesson from this graduate student, too, that some people are always right and you have to work around them.
