I just consider the source, smile condescendingly, and continue my life!:D
Do realize these asinine job titles are dreamed up by individuals not accustomed to the rigors of precise thinking that is a prerequisite for becoming an engineer. Need I elaborate by revealing their job title!;)

[quote="BuckeyeDennis"]Implying that engineers are born, not made? ]
No. Mental discipline is an acquired trait.
Idiots are born!
Mental dwarfs are born.
Stupidity is a sloppy thinking habit.
Some engineers are not immune.(sad to say!)
Some engineers become managers.
Get the drift?:D
Breakin several logic rules here!;) Intentionally!:p
