    Considering his work for Pratt & Whitney I’d guess he had the certs for engineer but he was also ridiculously proud of the fact he ‘came up through the ranks’ so identified more as a Master Electrician.

    When he heard I went to college for CS he considered it a waste, I guess he grew up in a world where competence was enough. Not like that anymore

      Nothing wrong with being a hedge engineer. I have a GED and associates in liberal arts.
