hey, i just got a job offer as a QC Tech in an Aeronautical coy.
i've googled it alot and found the term QC important in the production/engineering line...
but i've never really gotten a clear insight by those already in the industry..

as a fresh diploma graduate, what are the prospects in this industry as QC/QA? i would really like to know more..

That's provided the person lacks critical thinking and problem-solving skills. An engineer is someone who can think innovatively to solve real problems. A technician is an assistant who carry out the plans laid down by the engineer.

I've great respect for great engineers because they are the ones who make our lives better.

Cut this nonsense lah Patrick Seah a.k.a Miwashi from NEA a.k.a "poor and stupid" the engineer.

You have long been exposed when you went about bitching non-stop about NEA last time as Miwashi. Told you to stop doing that you don't listen until kena investigated and disciplined. Btw everyone in NEA know you were forced to resign.

I don't know where you are at now, heard from the 3ok ladies you joined a local metal mould company. Still don't want to take work seriously and posting the same nonsense this time round posing as some engineer? Don't wait until get the sack again then you happy. Be thankful that you manage to get a job so fast despite of your record.

Then why aren't engineers paid more than bankers? Apparently the world values banking skills much more highly than engineering skills. Choose wisely.
