Sometimes I start wondering whether I'm truly a Software Engineer, because of the line of work I am currently in. SEs were 'designed' to produce system critical software, life-critical software. Military, nuclear, or medical stuff. I mean, did I go through 4 years of he(ck), to do a job I where I could've gotten with a CS degree (i'm not dissing CS, i have many CS friends.. and there's just no comparison).

Then at work today, my boss asks me to work on a file that's being shared on a computer back at Metro Hall, and he mentioned he wanted to work on it too, and then all these thoughts popped into my head about mutexes and priority inversions, thoughts about the Mars Lander resurfaced, semaphores, priority inversion, . Haha.. I still got it..
