    Industry Exempt

    This link will take you to FAQ's about PE licenses for each state. It is very informative. http://www.ncees.org/licensure/licensing_requirements_2005/survey_e.pdf#24 You would be surprised how many states don't offer much of an Industrial Exemption if at all. You would also be surprised at...

    PE Reference Materials resource?

    Almost everyone that took the test when I did had some sorta luggage cart to carry their boxes of books in. I even saw a few kiddy waggons with books loaded up. Other people probably borowed their work's 2 wheel dollies.

    Bread and butter civil engineering tasks for work on the side.

    Proletariat I am in the same club as you. My employer is too big and specializes in a totally different area from the majority of my qualifications. There is no possible way I could compete with my employer without having 500 Billion in Cash. I have lined out insurance for whenever I might...

    Practising Engineering in USA States

    Maybe I could sue to start practising medicine and doing heart surgeries because it is against free trade to only allow MD's to practice medicine. The MD's earned the qualifications. You are free to earn those qualifications or earn the PE qualifications.

    watching the company rules

    Your rule following friend is destined to upper management. You better be nice to him. He will slow things down demanding more headcount for himself under the rules. Soon he will be a manager and his boss a Sr. Manager. As the new Sr. Manager sees the positive in having clumbersome rules by...

    Life In Albuquerque, New Mexico

    Great!!!! Even things in the winter can be mild. I played college baseball against the LOBOS on Jan 30th, 31st, and Feb. 1st in 1992. We had temperatures in the 70's and 80's with snow behind the dugouts. It was awesome. There is some good trout fishing on the Red River not too far from...

    Abandon NO? That would be political suicide.

    The area of NO that was below sea level was STOLEN property. This area should have remained marshes and swamps, and needs to be returned to the wildlife!!!!! The only area with an exception to the above is the ports which should be rebuilt. The area of NO above sea level should be free game...

    BDEngingeer - Can't you get a temporary or emergency license in Florida until the board at least meets? I know they are available in several states.

    Can't find a job

    Sounds like you are the all books and no play kind of guy. These sorta resumes get tossed in the trash a lot. Did you include any extra-curricular activities on your resume? How do you interview? What are your hobbies? The people hiring you want to make sure you have fun outside the...

    How to become a partner

    He should be giving you a big % of the company to keep you from leaving. Why not just own 100% of your own company? Your $$ would go a long way towards starting one. Small civil firms I have seen priced from $5 to $10 million. I am not sure how far off base these prices are.

    Can't find a job

    There is always a job out there. YOu just have to take it and prove you are willing to work. Keep looking and hunting until you get a job you like. You may start out flipping burgers or working for a firm as the janitor, but you can get to where you want when the jobs open up with a work...

    How will American Free Trade affect the Americas and Engineering?

    Molten - When you refer to Americans, I assume you are talking about all Americans such as Canadians, Mexicans, Brazilians, ect.... I think I know what you mean, but anyone in the Western Hemisphere not living on an Island is an American. There are US citizens, Canadians, Mexicans, Texans...

    How will American Free Trade affect the Americas and Engineering?

    Wouldn't those that control the major companies be the ones with the most to gain?

    How will American Free Trade affect the Americas and Engineering?

    How will American Free Trade affect the Americas and Engineering? What will it do for us engineers? I have seen where workers from Canada are in Venezuala this week protesting Americas Free Trade Agreement proposal. I don't know anything about it either way, but I am sure it will affect us all.
