What programming language should I learn?

I don't really want to go in depth into programming, I just want to know what I'm looking at if I ever come across anything like that at my job (mechanical engineering) and maybe solve some simple problems.

I learned C and Java in my first year in college, but it's all mostly forgotten. I'm leaning towards Python since I read it's relatively simple and used a lot nowadays, and it's what my teachers used later on in college anyway.

What do you guys think?

Thanks in advance!
