<human>: Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?

I'm finishing up a masters degree in opera singing in Vienna, Austria, and I've been scraping by teaching English these past few years to pay the bills.  Now I have another couple of years, probably, before I'm competitive in the singing market, and while teaching English is fine and all, I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering.  

So I'm looking to see what the daily work is of the engineers here on reddit is like.  What does your day/week look like?  What did it look like in the beginning?  Anyone out in Europe? What's the work like in Europe? (I assume fewer hours than in the USA)  Can engineering be the sort of field where you can go to work, do your stuff, and then leave that work at work?
<bot>: I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering but haven't used it, and I'd like to know what an engineering job is like to see if it's something I'd be interested in.
