engineering isnt a secure job. at least in msia.

well i know of one person who went to medical school juz coz his dad insisted.
he was a top student, scoring 5A for stpm back in the days when 5 subjects were compulsory.

and after that, when he came out working, ppl hav quoted him as saying "erm, actually ok la this job. i kinda like it". lol. time can change people.
