Mentor: an experienced and trusted adviser.

Do more senior engineers think that there are less mentors in the engineering field today?

The question is not: "If it doesn't benefit your current employer that you passed your PE exam then no they aren't going to give you more money, why should they?" its "Why work for a company where you can't use your PE." If you don't get a 20% raise you are not using your PE. Don't settle!

So far this is what we know about the states affected by the graphite lead issues.

My post is valid for any location where you can buy a nice house for 150k. California and other expensive places to live do not apply.

Precise reason why I commuted from northern Virginia for this exam. Had to wake up at 4:30 for the 1:30 commute. It had rained the night before and traffic was very heavy with and accident and low visibility. But I luckily had a good nights rest. The exam room was very hot.
