Maybe a better way to look at it to figure out if there’s a better fit for you in a different area of engineering. I am an engineer and officially hold an engineering position though I do very little real engineering. Others in my office do very little but FEA design work. My area of responsibility is focused on structural stuff and I’m losing one of my engineers to the safety and health division to play with water instead of steel and welding. My point is to be open to the diverse options within engineering.
