LOL, My first love was Mechanical Engineering, made it into second year at UNSW but then came thermodymanics, fluid mechanics, dynamics and engineering design. Too many moments of inertia and angular acceleration and blah blah blah. I became a high school teacher. Have you heard the saying "those who can't do teach" ??
They keep sending us on courses, you see.

Yeah, now I sit in front of a computer and draw pictures all day (AutoCAD). I've forgotten most of the advanced mathematics, physics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, dynamics etc as I havent used them since I graduated. And that was only 5 years ago.

I wouldn't have the guts to teach. I have greatest respect for teachers, seems like a tough job.
BTW the senior engineer at work is an ex high school maths teacher. I dont think there is anything maths related that he doesn't know off the top of his head, or so it seems anyway.
