Job titles ?

**** house engineer.

I'm a mechanical supervisor by job title. However, all it means is that I just make sure that the people on site (who know their job very well) are doing it correctly. Although I have no clue what I'm looking at.................................

I'm still being paid though?

I'm a plumber, can't be arsed with people's hang ups by either wanting to be an "engineer" or even worse, those who feel the need to justify that being an "engineer" is somehow special, it isn't

 

[lame plumber]

an engineer is some one with an engineering degree not a city n guilds

If you want to call yourself just a 'plumber' while a lot of monkeys out there with little or no experience, OR those capable but who just want to do bad work, but call themselves 'Engineers', then I think you are underselling yourself. First impressions of you from a potential customer is your job title. 'Plumber' says to me less skilled, plus possibly someone who can't do heating work.

 

[lame plumber]

easily resolved, if like me you say on the van you do heating and plumbing, service repair and installation, covers most things

But, be honest, I bet you have done work for at least several people who are genuine highly qualified 'engineers', who typically will talk the talk, but are morons who can't hammer a nail in straight?

I always call my self a heating engineer, I know that engineers hate it but it's just what I got called in quite a few jobs.

I do try and shy away from plumber mainly because I have worked more on heating in my career and feel this is more my specialist area, also I can't do poo! It just makes me gag every time.
