I was frat. I have an ME degree. You're all correct, it's the allure of money. I don't care, I love money and polos are expensive

In my day just about all frat guys majored in Business and graduated in General Studies

I've been on both sides in telecom, spent years as a tech and now a few years in engineering, I have to admit, once you're in the office you forget about some of the little things and occasionally design something that you wouldn't have a few years ago.

The biggest thing for me though is that my boss wants me to follow design standards to the T, which just with my background has me SMH half the time, and of course the Techs complain even though I try to design to their liking. Another thing is on the engineering side they want it done as cheaply as possible and on the tech side they want it done in a way that's convenient for them. I'm caught in the middle.
