[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many will say engineering. Rough road for a woman in the oversaturated male dominated industry. If it's not management diminishing your work, it would be the clients. Many days I ask myself why did I not peruse medical school. Ugh... [/quote] I have mixed feelings about this. I definitely had a rough start in a male dominated engineering career, and once I had kids the lack of flexibility was killing me. But my old boss retired and my new younger boss is definitely more flexible and doesn’t belittle my work. I make decent money and my job is stable. Maybe once all the old guys retire it won’t be so bad![/quote] This. I got a Phd in engineering very early in my career and I was able to jump ahead. While I think it would have been much much easier to be a male, I have done well and now can work less and earn more. I don't know what else I would have done, honestly.[/quote]
