Buzz! Zap! Other weird, science-y noises!

Ah, the sweet sounds of scientific progress. If you've got your priorities straight, the real reason to get into a field like electrical engineering is for the thrill of the work itself. Just imagine the sense of glory when you're watching TV and an ad comes on for the electric car you helped build. Must feel pretty good.

Oh, you have larger plans? Better start practicing your sinister laugh now.
