It isn't about impression.
I'd put 'janitor' on my business card for all I really care.
I know what I love to do, and I know what I am great at. 10 years in the
industry now. The only person who I try to impress is myself... by
staying current on BCP and better ways to do things.
My curiosity has the best of me, so I am looking for opinions. You have
one ;)
Those who know me know what I can do, and in reality, that is all I care
about. I'm not out to impress anyone. I just want to be a good netizen
like the rest.
Impression isn't what I'm after. What I'm curious about is the potential
over-use of the term 'engineer'.
Cheers,
Steve
