U know so many of my Friends in Mechanical Engineering branch moved to IT or desparately wants to move to IT... I can think of where Junk trash coming from... Not hard feelings...but I think u shud agree with me that every one has his utility whether a mechanical engineer or IT... The choice is your...but it should be based on the skills ur trained..not based on riding the bandwagan of IT because its hot today.... Right persons should be in right place
