    Here is a sincere question...why does the job title have engineer in it?

    I ask for this reason. Our HR department recently hired a consultant to review our roles. Our department is " Maintenance & Engineering" but we dont have any engineers on staff. We figure things out ourselves and make it happen. The consultant took issue with the engineering in the title.

    The consultant said we are over paid for "facility techs". We do menial work, occasionally, and that is what everyone sees. But, we also work on high pressure steam, chillers, electricity, and make modiications as necessary. We were able to reverse their thought process but geez! They were ready to take food right out of our mouths! I know friends in NYC with high school educations who do the exact same thing and are called engineers but how? Without getting an engineering degree? And does the title yield more pay?

    I don't see employment ads like this anymore. Not a word about compensation.

    It’s an amazing building, part old, part new. You would be working for one of my Brothers in The General Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen of the City of New York. He’s a great guy. 
    Retired and loving it.
