what's your plan?

As a self proclaimed Lockheed Martinist and war crime enthusiast - Lockheed Martin

But unironically, one of the big aerospace companies would be ideal, from what I've seen on linkedin a decent number of UNSW aero grads end up in one of them, so hopefully I can get there at some point. Its not exactly a "plan" per say, more like a rough idea to work/aspire towards.

Also the aerospace industry is going to be pretty in demand soon, so jobs shouldn’t be too hard to find *hopefully*

Im not saying this isn’t correct cause idk but it makes me think that every single job is “in demand”. Like you look up online or you find somewhere that you’re chosen uni degree leads to a profession that’s “in demand”. I’m starting to think it’s a scam and they’ve fooled us all…

Realistically though, a lot of stuff is "in demand". We always need nurses, teachers and so on. The issue is that a lot of these "in demand" jobs are constantly getting fked over by shrinking wages and job instability. Its sorta whats been happening with compsci/software people recently with the massive tech layoffs after the Covid bubble popped (eg: Google let go 12000 jobs earlier last year, with similar numbers from Meta, Microsoft etc) - Or nurses getting overworked during covid for shit wages. There's a reason why some in demand jobs are constantly in such a state, nobody wants to do them if they arent treated well.

So unis arent exactly wrong by saying a bunch of jobs are in demand. Its just the job market is undercutting those same jobs by lowering wages and increasing hours, which make certain degrees more undesirable, since the work needed to acquire them isn't properly compensated by future income.

COPIUM INCOMING: From current trends though, aerospace is a growing sector, and wont be saturated (like compsci) for a while - so the pay and hours should remain somewhat desirable for a good while. But who knows really.

Nah bruh. Rn I'm a loser who lost 90 percent of his attachments with the humanity, who aint gonna get laid because 1. CS girls are ugly and 2. too antisocial to hang in societies or go to clubs to meet people outside of CS.

If you are in year 10 rn and plan on pursuing CS, get a hot Asian waifu now. Because you ain't getting any at uni, unless you join a society which let's be honest you won't

Damn it you should’ve given me the advice earlier !!

hi yall
i'm currently in year 12, and I spend a lot of time at unsw main library doing my work.
don't worry I'm not any of the school kids that run around screaming or eating and laughing while everyone's tryna work, I promise I spend most of my time on level 8 in silence but because I go there so often id love to like have access to a study room...
is there ANY way to book a room without being a student? idk anyone who goes there that could book a room for me
I'm finding its been REALLY busy lately like last year when I would go there were always heaps of empty rooms but now every time I go every single room is full

you can just walk in without being a student
