A different Path?

Who wants to continue in the area of Food Science after Poly...?

I want to be a pilot of commercial planes.

LOL. Yea, maybe that's what I'll do. But do I need to go Uni to be a pilot? Hmm... See first ba...I don't have background knowledge, lose out here. If need to go Uni sure need to take Year 1 course. Another thing is eyesight, but got lasik right, LOL!!!

After IAP, I feel that the food area doesn't offer much. First is the $$$. The poly graduates monthly salary is only like $1400. If manager maybe >$2800>. Second is that the job doesn't offer much challenge unless if you're in R&D at the least. And R&D requires a degree. Flying around is more freedom, compared to office and lab workers like us. That's what I thought for now...

After that I might go into investment when there's enough capital. So lets just stick to books for now and learn the ropes. Work for 10 years maybe? 20 years to be financially free...

But then to want to "switch job" so easily might mean I give up easily. Sort of like betraying myself, cos I like science area... That's the cruel truth of the society, $ counts. Even if pilot gets the same monthly pay, at least its better to fly around. The freedom is already worth it. But then again there's no guaranteed freedom...

Hope there's a career call Food Techno Pilot.
