I'm an engineer. I'm overloaded with work. I make good money.

I don't see engineering as dead in the US.

Talented engineers can still make big bucks here.

I know engineers working at Lowe's now. Not that there is anything wrong with working at Lowe's mind you, but they sure as hell didn't need a masters degree for that.

Agreed.....if nothing else, you and I will (continue) make a lot of money before people figure out engineering really isn't dead........

What kind of engineer? It's hard to believe you are a software engineer and don't know what is going on in this industry.

I have articles, and books published in the software field and consider myself a good software engineer. Yet, I'm unemployed at this time. Some engineers have had to take minimum wage jobs to support their familes. If you haven't gone through any hard times in the past few years, consider yourself lucky.
