Power Engineering is a big No No if your answer is YES for any of these following conditions:
1) You are non-English speaking immigrant with very strong English accent. (FYI I am not pointing towards immigrant discrimination, I am pointing towards difficulty in communication on radio in noisy environment with double ear protection on. You will be regretting you decision 12 hrs a day for rest of your life). (Yes/No).
2) You are a city person or wanna live in your community if you are an immigrant. (Forget about getting Fly in Fly out or job near to Calgary or Edmonton unless you are super lucky or have very strong inside connections. Most of the plants are in remote locations.) Yes/No.
3) You are getting into Power Engineering only and only for Big Bucks!!! (Be Honest) Yes/No.
