If he can no longer review cars, our senior writer would welcome a second career as a road quality inspector.
THE best career advice I ever received was from an engineer I interviewed about six months ago. He told me that if I ever wanted a job for life, I should work for a company that’s trying to make the world a better place.
Of course, I also believe in doing a job that I’m passionate about. But lately, my job has seen fewer ups and more downs. So, I have been thinking about possible alternative careers that still involve cars and motoring.
I imagined defecting to the “dark side” by joining a carmaker, as other ex-journo friends have. Perhaps being an automotive product specialist is in my future.
A corporate job with a car company sounds nice. It would bring me even closer to the cars I love, and my salary might even be double what I’m earning now. However, I’m not sure I can be as well-versed as an engineer when it comes to the technical nitty-gritty.
