This is for always those who have stereotyped engineers at some point in their life. Even I was a part of this club at some point in my life.
Engineers lack creativity, they have a layer of monotony covering them, they are surrounded by machines, they are following the herd mentality, they don't like their own work, they just do it to earn a bit more. There are definitely some people who fall in this bracket but classifying them all in a box saying that they don't think out of the box is outrightly wrong. What makes you believe that engineers don't love their jobs? What makes you believe that every engineer is unpassionate about their job?
Some find creativity is an art some in music some in designing doesn't mean the technology is not creative. Engineers are the ones who can transform your imaginations into reality making the world a little easier for all of us.
At some point in my life, even I found the Streotypying engineers stand up comedians funny. But now I don't. When you study Science and you go into the depth of it, you realise how beautiful and fascinating it is. How victorious it feels to get answers to all the questions you had piled up in your mind since childhood.
People who get into Engineering aren't dull. People who aspire to be an engineer can't be stereotyped. Having a passion for engineering can also be the end result of more than an amateur interest in knowing the science behind things, having a keen interest develop new prototypes from the existing ones.
I condemn people who shrug off engineering as a creative career option. Those who shrug off engineering as going with the herd choice.Those who shrug off engineering as a safe future option.Those who shrug off aspiring engineers and label them as conventional.Those who shrug off budding engineers as moneymakers.
Because your existence is because of engineers.The civil engineer who was behind the building of your house and office. The mechanical engineers who come up with new machines and design your Air conditioners, elevators, lifts and the list goes on. The only thing that remains common is how vital their role is and how easy they make a life for us. So, scraping them off and tagging them and making memes out of them is wrong, thousand times over!
