Lambolica Forums Junkie Location: Northwestern Sydney Registered: August 2002	Re: overqualified vs underqualified Mon, 03 May 2004 07:29 Where I work, out of the 5 engineers here 4 of them have PhD's. Excluding the director (years of experience).The rest studied straight through to get their PhD's and started work here. I have no qualifications and yet these 3 engineers constantly come to me asking things that should be (I believe) assumed knowledge to an Engineer. These guys tend to spend their time fine anilysing 1 column to find the most effecient size/reinforcement and its impact on the rest of the structure, then move onto the next. now if you were working for N.A.S.A that would be fine but in Structural engineering spending that sort of time on a project may lead to problems later and no profits off that job. And most don't have a clue how a building is built and don't think of "buildability issues" when designing. Geez I could go on...... After being in the industry I'd love to get out but that really isn't an option now, finacially. So I may well do my Engineering degree and start my own company doing speciallist jobs on the side. But to answer the question I'm happy being underqualified (un) But at the same time I'm young and I've reached the pinicle of where my current career can take me (in this industry) and I'll be stuffed if I'm doing this for the rest of my life.
