I'm 27 and am going back to school for ChemE. I talked to my uncle (who is married with 2 kids) who recently went back at 33 to get a ME degree. My aunt was able to support them while he went back to school and he loves his job now. I however, would like to continue working while going to school. I work for a family business doing insurance work for a flooring company. My hours at work can be flexible if need be and would still like to work around 40 hours if possible. I'll be transferring about 64 credits in to the engineering program so that helps a little bit I guess. What will it be like taking 3-4 classes a semester and working 40 hours? My fiance and I don't go out too much besides the occasional Happy Hour, so there is plenty of time for studying and homework.

I was hoping if a few of the ChemE guys that have popped in to this thread could provide some info on the career itself. Day to day activties, your current job description or past ones, likes/dislikes, stuff like that.
