It must be an engineer thing. I thought I liked my job and I took it twice day with the same score! LOL ???

The problem with being an engineer, is the part of the job I love (building hardware, getting dirty, breaking stuff) takes all of 15 minutes per week. The rest of the work (writing budget proposals, creating schedules, tracking costs, safety and QA cr@p) really, really sucks.

Well, I don't get dirty and all my work is done on paper or simulation. (Or I would be a casualty by now. LOL). Plus we work as a team on large projects, so we can't score any higher on some of those questions.

Congratulations on your promotion, btw. I just got one last month myself. :)
