If engineering fails for me, there's a good chance I'll jump back into a labor position of some sort. It's often quite rewarding in the short term, as long as you build a path to an air-conditioned office. Although the only successful people in construction I've met, is generational.
Unfortunately the baking family trade stopped with me after my father passed. He always wanted me to use my head, not my body. Although there is a good chance I would have taken it over like he did at my age.
