I too am not surprised by the results of this study. Everyone that I’ve encountered in the workforce are genuinely excited to work. In my experience, I have not met a person that is unmotivated or sluggish because he or she does not want to work. I think for me personally, one of the reasons why I really like working is because I believe in the end result. I’ve always wanted to make a difference in patient care be it saving a life or aiding the process – this is primarily why I chose BME as my major. After getting real exposure to the medical device industry through internships, I really got a first hand chance to work on things that will directly affect a patient’s lifestyle. One of the really cool stories I heard in one of my previous internships was a machinist had to undergo surgery and get a new total knee. So after doing research, he decided to go with the Stryker knee because he worked there and he knows the quality of Stryker’s products. After getting the implant, he decided to find out who created the part. After some research into it, he found out that he himself actually machined the part that was inside of him. This is really what motivates me, this story is just another reason why I like my major.
