If you have an engineering degree, I'd imagine that there is some job out there you are qualified for that you will like

I don't hate what I do. I'll admit though that sometimes sitting behind a desk all day absolutely drives me up a wall.. Once I get my PE (year and a half), I feel like it will open more doors for me and I'll be able to explore different options. Project Manager, Sales, consulting, my own business, etc. Fwiw I'm on my 3rd job in 2 years because I've taken different opportunities trying to find my niche. It's just that sometimes Civil work can just bore me to tears.

I know two civils that had good jobs and hated them. Quit and went back to school. One in the medical field and one in finance. I don't think I could be a true engineer, but the degree has gotten me a chance at an awesome job as technical support. No real calculations, just use my experience to determine what options should be looked at. I love it. I feel like you can always find something unless you really have your heart set on something that absolutely requires a different degree (doctor, etc.)
