I thought that a group of Engineers would be the perfect audiance to ask the question......Is this financial crisis being talked about on TV for real? What do you guys think?
A large part of me doesn't feel sorry for people who bit off more than they could chew with their mortgage. I also...
I agree, I just finished that book and loved it. If only I could get my wife to read it.........
For those of you who read the book, she is what they call a hyperconsumer, LOL.
Your concerns are well known among the profession. However, either no one cares, or no one knows what to do. I recently left a job for about a 20% increase in pay. The scary part is that it wasn't tough to get that job and it took very little negotiating to get that kind of bump. For...
That's the answer I was hoping for. I didn't really want to take this on. I do structural inspections so that was not going to be the issue. I just was not prepared to take on that liability.
Thanks.
I am wondering if a licensed PE can provide home inspections. I can't seem to find the information specifically saying so. Also, if a friend is needing this as a favor, are there any liability issues with providing such services? This would be a free service on my own time.
I apologize for asking the question. My intent was not to start a rant, but apparently many of these people have ill feelings toward architects. I was just commenting on the fact that many structural jobs available now are with firms who are more Arch than Eng. I was wondering if that was the...
I am curious as to what kind of rates and multipliers people have been seeing. I'm particularly interested in the midwest. I remember a time when 3.0 was acceptable but now it seems companies are squeezing to 3.5 to 4.0 minimum. So at $100 an hour, should a Project Engineer with a PE be...
Taking SE in IL. Don't live in St. Louis but I'm guessing you do. I've only heard St. Louisans call it the lou.
I'm not too far away though (75 miles from Busch) I will probably commute for a short time while moving etc.
I'm not interested in what my boss says. I need out of my current position. No oppurtunity, $23 an hour, and a bunch of headaches.
I agree with the fact that it might be easier to wait until after the test to change, but i'm been wanting to leave this job for two years. I couldn't because...
I need some salary advice. I am looking to relocate to St. Louis. I'm a structural guy, recently got my PE, signed up for the SE this spring. I know I'm getting the shaft where I'm at now. I need to know what kind of range I should expect. I've got 5 years of experience. I know that might...
My intent was not to question the importance of one profession to the next. I understand that Engineers needs Architects and vise versa. I am used to working with Architects who hire us to provide them with whatever Engineering they need. I just thought it was strange that I have been...
