Best Answer:
I don't want to burst your bubble, but you likely will not find a management position right out of school. Most of the time a company will want you to work there for a while in lower end positions so that you can learn the business. Only then will you be able to become any sort of manager.

1. I am not happy. This is just a title now. I like it before but now no more; 2. Before it was, but now, challenges just comes once in a while, no continuous at all; 3. Yes i will. I studied Industrial engineering. If given the chance, i will pursue my career on electronics & communications engineering; 4. All jobs are stressfull if you're working hard for it; 5. No office is perfect, you're always looking forward for something different or highly technical. People are ok; 6. Yes i do. You always have to satisfy your customers always. Each is diff. w/ others. Just find the business character of each & it will work. Before you deal w/ each, try to search about them first; 7. If you're a working mom, better leave your weekends with your family. Sunday is not enough. When kids are in school during the weekdays, they don't seem to notice you, but when kids are at home, they are looking for you. Always check your kids things at least once a week. Always ask what's happening in school;
