I love cars and I'm studying automotive engineering

Don't you think there are people out there who actually enjoy their jobs instead of being miserable every second they spend in it?

I went to school for mechanical engineering, I realized in my second year, the year where you focus on your specific major and take the core classes, that I fucking loved it. I knew without a doubt mechanical engineering was my passion. I felt so fucking accomplished and fulfilled studying that shit and succeeding.

I graduated five years ago, I've been in three jobs, everything you learn in school is thrown into the fucking trash. You're no longer surrounded by hardworking, intelligent peers; you work with ordinary people. The work becomes so dry, monotonous, and soul crushing. Studying to become an automotive engineer? You're probably going to end up designing a fucking gasket or a tire tread in Catia day in and day out. The real world is absolutely miserable, it's where passion goes to die.
