Engineer == "break the problem itself to smaller parts and decide the best approach and the best tool, *then* code it up"

Six months later, my software is working and my company is making a profit.

Damn proud to be called a Software Engineer!

Consider yourself highly commendedTM, sir.

(Ever notice we didn't need as much QA before the advent of Microsoft and before outsourcing? Many more practitioners considered themselves "master craftsmen" instead of "script kiddies" -- that, and when you only have 8K of RAM, you *have* to be elegant.)

Cheers!
