"Software developers are the absolute most offensive use of the word "engineer". This, exactly this! I am a retired Aerospace engineer. 8 years of engineering studies at college and 2 years of work study before I was hired. My son considers himself a "software engineer" and I have told him many times that he is NOT an engineer. He was homeschooled (so, pat my back there), never went to college, never studied programming at all. Yet he makes between $200K-$250K per year, 5 TIMES what I made as a Senior Engineer at Boeing. smh
