The term engineer has been bastardized to the point that any
function that leads to the creation of something is called engineering.
Hell, garbage collectors or janitors might be called sanitation
engineers to give them a title with some flare. This has lead to the
lack of respect for engineering that has pushed the career to foreign
shores.
Texas is the only place I know that has rules about someone being
called an engineer. I have no idea how it is
enforced. I'm not an
engineer, so I cannot say what the rules are. I only know you cannot
put engineer on your business card in Texas without a certification or
you can get in trouble with the state government.
I'm not certified, but I am certifiable. That counts. Right?
