      tbh since about age 13/14 I more or less knew what I wanted to do… Other things (law and finance in particular) interest me but they’ve never made me doubt my career choice.

      I figure that if you pick a career that you could be good at (based on what subjects you’re good at in school, I was good at maths and physics) and that you might enjoy (I’m interested in how cars/planes etc. work) then you shouldn’t have too much to regret!

      I don’t think so, but there are times when I’ve realised I had gaps in my knowledge. So I have to make time to learn and stay up-to-date with technology.
