The file is correct its just currently isn't setting a path (your getting
the default path)

add the line: 

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/sbin

adding whatever you want after the first : 
($HOME) is your home directory so in this case assuming your username is
enginear

/home/enginear/bin and /sbin would be added to the default path.
