Just to be clear - if you recently got your PE, you get to attend the ceremony free. It is basically a quarterly networking event with the added shindig for new PEs. I expect them to make me feel important so that I obtain an MDSPE membership. I believe there will be food. But if you didn't get...

Only for newbies :( Veterans pay $35

Anyone attending  the license ceremony on March 24th? I plan to be there.

I have setup my own consulting firm and am currently a single member LLC. I am using Hartford for General Insurance. I have also been looking around for 'worker's compensation', long term disability and 'Errors and Omissions' coverage. I am not sure how to obtain long term disability coverage...

I've used up clients. Incidentally, I have been working in the Rail industry for the past few years and know quite a few PEs there - but they are all from UK! As far as friends are concerned ------------- Aren't you my friend? :) Seriously speaking; I have searched high and low. Found a few...

That's good to know that the annual renewal is not a new one. None of my current or previous employers are PEs - I have worked in the satellite/Voice over IP/Telephony switching fields. All my PE references that I got so far (including approval for the PE exam) have been clients. Will look into...

I've started working on my NCEES record and got stuck at the 'References' section. The record requires 5 PEs as references. I chatted with an NCEES rep and looks like there will be no exception provided. Even if you get by this hurdle; you have to add a new reference every year - again a PE. I...

Yay! I can like posts now. Apologies for the delay. Just donated $25.00

I got one from PPI the day after I got my result - I passed. Just adding to the observations that the email doesn't mean anything. Well.........it means that PPI knows that some of us who attempted will fail and that's a good time to advertise. So they send out emails around the time the results...

Hmmm..............I don't see that tab on my screen. Tried different browsers. Do I need a minimum number of posts?

I had a rolling laptop bag. Since my major was Electrical and Electronics, I didn't need too many references. So Just 5 books for me. However, I did have a compass with a pencil in case I had to work on a Smith chart. 2 proctors came and examined it closely and decided I couldn't keep it. I...

Thanks. Was going to use PayPal since the credit card didn't work. How do I 'Like a post' ?

I'll donate if someone tells me how to 'Like a post'. Driving me nuts. This should be simple. After all, I cleared the PE exam!!!

You mean PE?? :)  Looks like that's what they need. A Comp Science PE who can help with their databases. Not too many of those around. Just a handful taking the Comp elective. My condolences to all those who are still waiting for the results. You deserve to know by Christmas/New Year whether...

Actually, not even that much :(  My first year since quitting my regular job. So I've not had much income + most of it has been put back into investing in the business + cash flow issues (invoiced but won't get paid until next year!). Yeah! Sounding like a proper business woman - cash flow and...

Wow! I'm working on the Eagle P3 project. I'm working on the WiMax system that is used to carry the PTC/CCTV/PA information between the train and trackside! In fact, I will be flying back to Denver tomorrow morning to work in the CRMF building. I was at the Smart Rail conference from October...

To P.E. or not to P.E. -------------- almost sounds like a Shakespearean (Yes; I checked the spelling) version of what my dog does when he goes for an output. Takes him forever to decide and the amount of time he takes is directly proportional to the |temperature below zero|. "To pee or not to...

As owner of my own consulting firm; I have immediately instituted a 100% pay hike for me :)  It's a different issue that I might have to infuse capital into the company from my personal account to meet the higher salary expenses. And then I will pay out more in Self-employment taxes! So I will...

It's been 21 years since I finished my undergrad and 17 since I finished my grad school. If I can do it; you can do it. Since you're older you have probably experienced being on the ledge more than the younger ones; so you can tackle it better even if you are not aware of it consciously. There...
