What's the best major for the comfiest job? What did you major in?

>aviation
>meh tier
who the fuck made this list

Tfw pleb labourer working cash jobs for contractors to clean up building sites and other no skilled shit

It's based on employment statistics, not "wow planes cool".

how hard was it to land your job with a biochemistry degree?

Worked unrelated jobs myself but I have peers working for Google and Microsoft.

What statistics? Can I see them? Becoming a pilot is a great career path right now, there is a shortage of available pilots.

>comfy major
Hell if I know, ecology or civil engineering looks rather comfy though, even if according to this meme graph they are shit tier.
>what did you major in
When I get to that point probably biology. I would like to either be a dentist or in something dentistry related, and investing in either engineering or programming or some other study likely wont help much assuming I get into and through dental school.
Personally I would rather avoid starting my own practice, I can see why that would be desirable but at the same time I will almost certainly not have enough patience or will to both start and run one. Would rather just do my dentistry.

Honestly I was just lucky. I applied to 3 companies during 3rd year for a masters placement (it's a thing in the UK, you do a masters project at the company and get paid for it), got one interview and they accepted me.
After that year was up and I had a masters degree involved in drug discovery, they offered me a job.

Haha, thanks for making me laugh user

>literally have to work almost a decade being treated as a subhuman getting paid under minimum wages in some cases and unable to have a normal family
>good
Lmao

PhD in Electrical Engineering. Thesis on RFIC design.

You need a higher tier for me.

But do you have a job? Also:
>engineer
>PhD

These days a PhD is almost mandatory for working on MMICs.

>becoming a pilot is a great career path
If you are in the military or are a complete turbo autist about flying maybe. Pilots are going through a shortage for a reason, and you get treated like literal expendable dirt for some peanuts for years before you make the big bucks assuming you get a position at Delta or something. And that isnt even taking into account all of the schooling and flight hours you need to even be considered either. And I am saying this as someone working on getting a private/sporting license just so I can fly shit. Fun as hell to do, but damn if it sucks as a career.

i've been debating on electrical vs civil, but I'm not sure. Which one is comfier and/or has better job prospects.

anything connected with software (or hardware electronics)
in 20-30 years the only jobs that will be left will be also connected with AI/programming
the ai will be responsible for designing everything

Pilot is notoriously a bad job. You're basically a bus driver nowadays, and are treated as such.

I assume this is for USA? In yurop atleast in my country Criminal justice&Law is Unbelievable tier, Electrical engineer is Good tier and Computer engineer Great tier

Are you in Poland by any chance?

programmer here and i hate it. also i get paid shit. but that's unrelated, i hate going to work every day. even if they paid me more i would hate it equally but i would at least know i can retire ASAP

>being a NEET isn't an option

wrong

Dunno man, I didn't do the college route. Intel analyst making low 100s now, mid 30s.

No, Finland

>tfw graduating with a degree in chemistry next year
>shitty family who used to abuse me since early childhood consisted of illiterate wagies and brainlets
>said shitty family is seething from my achievements and my connections with profs/work as a TA

It's an odd but good kind of feel lads. Keep pushing and you will make it. Remember, help yourself for your own sake and for your own dreams, never for anybody else. Take the easy path in achieving your dreams, especially for neethood/passive income. I care about you all and I wish the best for all of you continuing to strive to male a home in this world not meant for us. Godspeed.

Computer Science and Geography but I'm aware which one actually matters. Also, this is dumb because you should honestly just major in something that makes you happy so you don't drop out and kill yourself

I'd place Aerospace Engineer as Good-to-Meh. Job prospects have been super-shitty for decades now.

Definitely true. The jobs are getting poached by low-paid second-world talent and are basically glorified bus drivers

The worst curse life can throw at you is make you shit with numbers. I would drop kick an old woman and five children into an incoming train for more math and programming talent.

Finance not being God tier? I can make a fuck ton of money.....

just work hard retard. nobody is born knowing calculus. talent is a meme

forestry is fucking cash dude thats what I work in. I get to fight fire, rip it on an ATV, cut down trees, tranq bears, do rescues, carry a gun. Wont say the state but im a ranger

I would very much like for mathematics to not be placed in the same category as "software engineer". Thank you.

wanted to get into software engineering, but dropped out because i was too lazy to understand all these bizarre concepts
on my second semester of electrical engineering now, already feeling like dropping out and just becoming a basic bitch electrician

i did my undergrad in computer science and my phd in philosophy. philosophy's way higher IQ on average, if you ignore the liberal feminists

youll be fine, i graduated from a mid-tier program and got a job 2 months out. Move to an area thats big in analytics, diagnostics, or manufacturing and apply for everything. You wont love your first job but youll get experience and be ready for what you really want

Mathematics and I know how to program pretty good. Honestly I'd probably kms Frome the pure tedium and boredom if I chose CS or something.

No idea how people go through with that stuff.

Thank user, I appreciate it. What do you do for a living now?

I'm in Marine Engineering. It's fucking incredibly underrated

>Marine Engineering
do u make fish?

why do you hate going into work everyday? whats uncomfy about it?

essentially everything

>waking up 6am to an alarm clock (i am a genetic night owl)
>force-feeding breakfast
>driving through traffic
>annoying artificial lights on the ceiling hurt my eyes
>sitting in a fucking chair for so long (hurts my lower back)
>doing boring, monotonous tasks
>wearing pants and shoes (i prefer shorts and flip flops)
>have to put on an act and pretend to be interested in these normies and their lives

the only reason i do it is for money. everything about it is unenjoyable. it's basically a form of torture

oh true but taking into account that you have to deal with most of that shit at every other job, would you not consider it relatively comfy?

yeah, i can't think of a job that would be less terrible. and maybe one day i could work remotely

i was NEET for almost a year though, so wageslaving is basically the source of my misery entirely at this point

This but from the other side.
Get your galois-theory-proving asses off my actual workplace.

Tfw I studied criminology
Basically wasted 3 years of my life :)

>Major in accounting, minor in Information Systems
>pretty easy 8 hour days with paid 30-60 minute lunches
>all the benefits
>only busy at month end (maybe 5-10 hours of overtime in a week)
>already at 4 weeks vacation a year
>lots of flexible work options (from home, short weeks, banking time, bit of travel)
>pay isnt that bad

I don't mind it, could be better and it could be worse.

>looking for an easy money job instead of a fulfilling one
This is internalized wagecuckery.

>Aerospace Eng
>Unbelievable
What?
I'm studying this shit and I fucking hate it

what do you make?

original

>just follow your dreams and find a fulfilling career.
this is just baby-boomer idealism. What percent of the population legitimately finds a career that they love waking up for every day?

I just want a job that provides a comfortable lifestyle that doesn't consume my entire life/fuck my health, mental or physical (aka wageslaving at my blue collar position that barely pays over minimum wage like I do now)

Law these days most certainly isn't anywhere near unbelieveable tier here. It used to be though.
t. knower

Only if you already have connections, which make having the degree meaningless by itself. The market is oversaturated with business/finance graduates who can't find a job in their fields.

>TFW last year of CS major

le ebin czech

thats cool user, im in forestry and I have a friend majoring in like bovine managment. how did you get into the field?

oh hell yeah nigger that's the specialty i chose on my ag program
im also minoring in IT

im starting the program this year, my state has a shortage of people working in ag so they give out scholarships for it. my stepmom also has connections to people in the field, so i'm probably going to get an apprenticeship soon. hopefully you didn't misread my post lol.
i'm also , how is forestry? i already like the idea of managing the woods and keeping it in balance (thanks varg).

do you actually plan on ever using your IT shit? I minored in geospatial mapping, I actually do use it

>what's the best major for the comfiest job?
idk, though its difficult people in engineering or any kind of technology seem to have it good once they get through all the education. Obviously medicine too would lead to a nice life if you could do that route.

>What did you major in?
chemistry, doing a PhD. Being a lab slave is stressful (and not very healthy if you care about that shit), but making connections in grad school could lead to good opportunities later on.

its honestly awesome, if you werent in shape before forestry or a little wimpy you get in great shape, fresh air, usually cool level headed non hippy types when you start to just do the real management stuff and working outdoors

My university has aviation and construction...
It's not a small school either has around 15k

i do actually, im thinking of crop management and applied machine learning (or, how to make farms work better for longer and not cause dust bowl 2 electric boogaloo)
dunno if that makes sense. i hope it's applicable, my only real concern is that there isn't an established path to said work. i type like a retard because it's midnight by the way.
great to hear. i don't get the chance to get out enough these days (current situation involves parasitic half-sister who won't get off our backs) and already take whatever chance i get to go out in nature.
what do you think about osage oranges?

too much of a superior path to take for it to be on this list

If I knew I was going to be this unhirable I would have just skipped college and put the money into crypto.

based, what branch are you studying? and how are you on pubs?

>not understanding quantum mechanics
when you take out the math and boil it down to the concepts, the shit is easy as fuck. are you retarded?

another word of advice is im only in my 20s but i am hired by two different state departments already and do research is spam internships and do as much free volunteer things you can and paid if possible. i started out working little sanctuaries and moved up and up

I also do marine research, heres me chillin on our vessel

to be honest I have not heard much about them! I am in forestry but i really focused in avian ecology and marine sciences because its what my schools offered. I am going back for more certifications soon where I hope to learn way more shit about vegetation. I have latins and structs down for 1000s of birds and marine animals but my plants suck

>what branch are you studying?
organic/medicinal chemistry. No publications yet I hope because I started pretty recently. But i'll keep grinding and hope for the best.

i could be of help with plants, that's my shit right there. im 18 by the way, as i type i'm waiting for the uni to process my application. nice boat you got there.

you got a discord or some shit, I would love to talk to you. based plantposters

I'm military (not as a private) it's not comfy but it's neat.

i do have a discord, my dad is borrowing my phone at the moment but i think i can log on on here.
it's thenwerd#1217 if i recall correctly.

shit 9 not 7

pretty cool. I'm not gonna go for a Ph.D. but I work in a small radiochemistry lab. Most of my organic experience is with synthesizing chelators. I was given the great opportunity to write some of the pubs (either entirely with guidance from my mentor or just certain sections our lab put out) and it's been an awesome learning experience. Hopefully I can get to 5 by the end of the year, right now I'm at 2 going on 3.

Maybe you could ask your mentors if you could peer review or do some journal writing related work? That's how I got it (helps that my mentor is really cool and I'm an English minor)

What's the most common application for the compounds you synthesize?

>double majored in psych and economics
>got a job in insurance that I start in a week that is perfectly suited to my autism of needing ocassional socialization, but mostly working on my own
Pay is pretty good, and there is a decent amount of travelling so I'll get to be comfy in my car while listening to eurobeat and anime music.

Only real issue is that the first 2 weeks are unpaid, but the rest of training is paid.

What do you all think of marine engineering?
Work on massive ship while sailing around the world.

Hello fellow sailor bro

Marine Engineering is the best career no one has ever heard of.

How comfy is veterinary studies? That's what I'm planning to study. Being a veterinarian is my dream job.

>tfw recently graduated from EE
found a job as a project engi in a process control automation company in sg, 1 mth after graduation.
havent start working yet, but the ratings on glassdoor are pretty shit so yeah.

Dude, try finding another programming job. There are shittons of companies that will probably pay you better if you can do your job properly.

I'm a programmer myself and don't have such problems with my job.

>semicond
I avoided that shit like crazy. I'd rather deal with some masters level control system module than fucking semicond any day
>le BJT and MOSFET analysis meme
fuck that shit

>fulfilling job but pathetic salary
>shit job but better salary
either way is still wagecuckery. Might as well earn as much as possible and move to somewhere with cheaper living costs.

18yo fag here. I have 3 options to choose from.

>Mechanical
>Civil
>Biochemistry

Someone advice.

Mech.
I'm EE myself, but from my perspective:
Pros:
Mech: versatile, can cross industry (at least in my country)
Civil: Always needed, industry also quite exclusive
Biochem: Not sure whats the advantage though, pharmacy would have been a better choice.

Cons
Mech: Usually very general and usually many people take this. Need to stand out either with insane grades or projects
Civil: Locked into the housing/construction industry.
Biochem: Potentially lab job wagecucking. Too specialised and crossing industry/job hopping might be tough

I'll advise you to go mech if you're willing to grind for the grades. More options are always good, but only if you have the grades to back it up. If not, then civil is the best choice.
