> I do it because it's a good job and I want money

I wonder what you think will happen after you get that job?

(Either go in a different direction now, or else you might as well start learning how to keep your head above water in your EE career now.)

edit: I should add: I posted the comment you’re replying to and in regard to this:

> …are people who have never had the experience of being a "bad student"

Nah… I’ve been a bad student — just based on averages, likely worse than you. My only “special” skill is that after multiple crushing failures I realized, “hey.. maybe I should think more than zero steps ahead” when considering my many pressing life problems. In retrospect, I’ve found it’s like a superpower because it seems like almost no one bothers to do it, so you can get ahead in almost any circumstance.
