I posted a thread a few minutes ago but for some reason it is not showing up in the list of threads. Hopefully the conversation can still continue.

I figured if I was listed according to the TBPE that i would been seen as liable until proven (likely expensively) otherwise. My company has E&O insurance so I am covered on that front. Another concern is that I am employed on a contract basis as a drafter with minimal engineering effort (yes the economy is that bad) and certainly do have not oversight of designs that are issued. Should I have more say in the design if I am listed (or regardless of my status according to TBPE) and should I request higher pay for the use of my PE number even though I am not sealing drawings. They are afterall advertising there is a PE on staff.
