I see many young, just quallified, pen pusher type Engineers within our business with CEng nehind their names, and truly wonder what kind of bu****it projects did they present to get it. My degree and work since would easily quallify, and where once I was keen to do this, I've slowly switched towards retirement mode instead. If my current job had come along 10 years earlier I would have done it. Now I'm looking to go 4 days a week and take one of my pensions, hopefully stick with this job for another 3 to 5 yrs...Its not about your skill set, but also how much corporate pishhhhhh you can spout at interview about everything unrelated to your job! I leant this working for Broken Promises Petroleum!
