I Quit Structural Engineering | My last day as a Structural Engineer

Have you ever wonder what your last day as an engineer will be I take you on that journey as I decided to quit Structural Engineering after 16 years and filmed my last day as a Structural Engineer. What does it mean for this channel, and why I left Structural engineering? Being a consultant engineer is tough, but it is something I loved, and you and see many videos on why I love Structural Engineering; however, sometimes, there is a need for change and growth, and the next journey in my Engineering career will be exciting. I will not reveal much in this video, but the next journey isn't far from Structural Engineering, and I will take you on that journey.
My youtube channel on structural engineering isn't coming to an end; in fact, it is likely to have better, more exciting content. And I look forward to taking you on the journey.

I've quit consultancy and looking forward to my new role in a structural engineering software design company. Good luck Brendan, you've reinvigorated my passion for engineering with your videos.

I like math and physics and designing and creating new things but I hate endless meetings, dealing with the contractors, archiects and owners. Sometimes a projects goes through so many changes I forget the initial state of the project, my assumptions my design philosophy. It is a completely different animal than what you start with. You just try to make things work with minimal damage. It takes the joy out of your work.

Congrats on this new journey Brendan! Can’t wait to see how you’ll help people through this channel even more now. I’ll be sure to tune in and find out what your new adventure entails! Whatever it is, you’ll do great at it.

Thank you for the videos and congratulations on your new endeavor. I have 44 years (and still counting) as a Structural Engineer and have made similar changes starting with consulting, to large corporation, and back to consulting. I retired from a full time corporate environment at age 62 and returned to consulting because (like you) I enjoy the technical side of the work. I also have enjoyed teaching at a community college part time to share my knowledge and experiences. I could not have planned my career the way it turned out, but made changes that were appropriate and necessary to advance my skills and opportunities. Keep on adjusting your course as you see fit, and as the pilots sometimes say may you have blue skies and tail winds all the way. 😀

I just quit my role as a graduate structural consultant!! I Will be working in a tier 1 construction company and Im super excited. While I enjoyed structural engineering, I know ill never be happy working a 9-5 in an office where career and salary progression is minimal.

WSP is one of the toughest consultancy. Extremely long working hours, constant OT

[emirjusufbegovic]

You are amazing. Big respect for you, mr. Hasty!💗

[xiangli]

Just found out you worked at WSP, lol. I've worked as a bridge engineer at WSP Vancouver for 3 years, just quit three months ago, and moved on to a different career path. Good luck with your new journey!
