Well, ****. I work in the Engineering dept at a large mega corp. My job title says "Engineer".  My degree is Software Engineering, which I guess if we want to get technical about it was the Computer Science dept at my University. I write software for lasers 'n **** for process automation.  Today I found out I am not, in fact, an Engineer. 

Im an engineering manager with a finance degree. I made it through calc 2 for engineers but changed majors to finance. Started with my company in finance and moved to engineering and worked my way up. I dont call myself an engineer because I am not. I dont even put engineer in my signature because I never got the degree. Just seems wrong to call myself something that I never completed.

Why are we supposed to care? Seriously. 

Because someone challenged your creds? 

Why. Do. You. Care?

Laughable how invested everyone is in how others perceive them.

Not about others. I didnt complete the degree. I know more about what we do specifically than the engineers with a degree but that doesnt make me an engineer.

What a bunch of snowflakes. 

All of you, grow a pair. 

Full-grown men b!tching about what other people are saying on the internet. 

I could see if anyone’s opinion here actually mattered to any of you, but I am assuming you are independent and reasonably intelligent. 

Classic sycophant deflection once confronted with the horrifying truth of JIC's own words. Guy was all riled up about the comments of one person but finds it just ridiculous anyone would care about Johns comments.

Please. Lit is posting PMs I sent him a long time ago. There is a difference between private messages between two members here and things that are posted publicly for all to see.

Oh yeah theres a difference. You called the forum morons. You made fun of Ron clearly all I said was Ron is annoying. Hopefully people can see who you are more clearly.

C'mon people, it's a beautiful Saturday. Go outside and play and get some fresh air. Put all that emotion into something more useful.

This. Or better yet, take the massive amount of energy that you are investing in seeking to destroy one another and use it for good. I won’t mention him by name, but there is at least one member here who invests a lot of time in his community by volunteering. Every moment you spend doing something destructive is a missed opportunity for something constructive.

The best and worst thing about this forum is that old posts can't be deleted or edited, and anyone can go back and revisit any other poster's old comments here.  So your statement here is demonstrably false, and it's easy for just about anyone to check by taking a look at your public comments from 2017 and 2018.

There was a time here when this first came up and I regret being part of the pile on and some of the jokes at the time.

For the record I also regret sending you those PMs.  They weren't for public consumption but I shouldn't have made those jokes even in private, and if resurfacing that has hurt Ron again here then I'm truly sorry.

Show me a member here who hasn’t said or written something hurtful to someone else. Rather than revisit the worst in all of us, let’s channel the spirit of this forum - a place to support one another - whether in cooks or in other life experiences.

Both (or all) parties in such discussions are culpable. You can't clap with one hand.

The difference is that one regrets it, and one doesn't.

Who said I dont regret it? I even gave it up and John kept doing it till Ron left the forum.

I'm saying that you don't regret it, because you never stood up to say that you do. 

Prove me wrong.

I was shocked but I specifically remembering him apologizing. I was as hard on him as anyone over the Ron stuff, but he did publicly apologize. The thread might have been nuked, IDK? You just fail to see that your own behavior is as bad or worse than his. Its sad.

I may have apologized I dont remember either. I do know for sure I gave it up way before John who kept going until Ron left for awhile. So funny he tried to play this off like this was me when he clearly instigated it and followed up with a PM to make sure I saw what Ron said. He did the same thing with Focker.

I'll take your word for it, if he did indeed apologize. Don't see why he's not willing to reiterate the same apology.

 There's more than one person (besides myself), who can't see that they're being a dickk. For quite some time now.

Someone posted that they had cancer. Ron chimed in that he had the same cancer and if the guy cared about ever getting it up again just kill himself now. Its in one of the screen shots John sent to me above.
