>>6375505Coo coo. I almost went that route. I went to a pretty good school, but i love other things than math, like computer science, so i took a job and dropped out of grad school.
I realized I would be stuck in a postdoc with minimal money. Then after a few years I woukd star with less as an associate prof. Than an associatr engineer.
I know its greedy but i enjoy engineering too so I am good. So....do you wish you could apply your skill or are you happy with your current job and life? Do you make 6 figs yet? How long have you been in acedamia after graduating?
