    How many actually like engineering?

    I feel much the same as most of you. I start to feel restless after working for the same firm for about 2 years. And the feeling is starting to hit me again. Previously I was a futures broker on the floor of the largest futures exchange in the world and got bored with that after 4 years...

    Lugging Reference Material to the Test

    2 copier paper boxes. I carried it in as a demonstration of my manly strength for all the ladies. :p10940623:

    Construction PM Harder?

    I used Ruwan's book for the Oct 09 exam and subsequently passed. But it was merely another weapon in my arsenal of material. The book is relatively disfunctional, as mentioned it doesn't even have a table of contents. For my preparation, I just worked the example problems in it and tabbed...

    $1/hr is a f@#$in joke! I have attempted to rationalize the situation thusly: The company's interest is to employ people for the lowest price. What do I know today that I didn't know before we got our passing letters. That being said, it is my best interest to start shopping around. I think...

    Nope, hoping she comes soon though - have to have that piece of paper to get a title change, etc. The boss told me I'll be getting a $1/hr raise when it comes - with all that extra scratch I'm thinking about living high on the hog and buying lunch every now and then instead of brown-bagging it.

    My stamp has the license # E-407**. It does not have the '-6' at the end. I expect that any reputable stamp/seal retailer will know what the Wisconsin spec on it is.

    I ordered the 2" stamp in black and used my city of residence. It seems as if most of the guys I work with have the same.

    Taking advice from others on the site I ordered mine from www.engineerseals.com. I placed the order at 2:00pm Friday afternoon, got a UPS tracking # at 5:30pm Friday afternoon saying it was on it's way. Delivered today. I selected UPS standard shipping. I would say that a 3.5 hours from...

    Hopefully they won't need your shoe size and a stool sample to complete that transaction.

    Took mine in Wisco. I'm really surprised all of this confirming FE exam dates and what not, was not done prior PE exam approval. I always thought that when the Board approved you to take the PE, that the only requirement that was yet to be fulfilled was passing the damn exam. Am I somehow...

    Mine finally showed up - now I have a little street cred. Guess I was wrong about the over.

    This is almost breathtaking. I'm in the same boat, no title change, no raise (wishful thinking) until I have a license number. Not to mention, I can't wait to start stamping scrap paper on my desk. I'm pleased as punch that in return for the higher than average tax burden in Wisconsin, we are...

    On the DRL website, my Application Status shows that the exam requirement has been moved the the 'Met' section as of 10/23. Hopefully we'll be getting our license #'s this week.

    Fatty Raises

    I approve this message - couldn't have said it any better.

    Is there a suggestion box over at DRL that we can drop this into? I would like to amend it however to include 2-15 minute coffee breaks when staff will be unavailable to process license requests. Additionally, civil's should be processed first with those damn EE's being last;)

    This corroborates the experience some of my colleagues have had. I agree that the note on the addendum is in reference to those who did not take the FE. Hopefully we get our #'s on the 8th too.

    I thought that all of us were appoved already - they did this when they approved we are eligible to take the exam. When I look at my appication status, the only item remaining to be fulfilled is passing the test. I too hope that it is not another month until we get our license #'s.
