I was used to having zero money all through college and cutting corners just to pay bills and feed myself, then suddenly you're making way more. I found this to be very true. I picked up a degree in Computer Engineering, and ended up working at a company helping repair, maintain, and retrofit their CNC machines to use newer computers and newer software. I am not quite sure how they found me because I didn't even apply for the job. They just called me up and said that they heard I was good at fixing things. The variety of work is amazing, and the pay is very nice. I do software (writing post processors and CAD work), hardware (rewiring the machines, soldering together new interface boards), and physical repair work on the machines (replacing motors, etc). I am also doing all their IT style work (VPN setup, computer maintenance). I didn't do any official internships during college, but I did do all kinds of odd computer jobs for people in various forms of industrial work starting back in middle school. I am guessing someone probably mentioned my name to them.
