ppl trained in ME are engineers, ppl trained in MET are fake-engineers that we call technicians

attourney is from french and means something "man on bhalf of another"

not always

An attorney is more like a trustee. Someone you turn over property to for their management.

I always make fun of my MET friends and call them fake-engineers

i know those with certain EET degrees who have their PE

really fun

A lawyer is just someone who knows the law

@ManAnimal yeah, but u have to take a hard exam

which... basically tests your knowledge of ME

not MET

yup; and practice 8 yrs professionally before taking it

but not all MET programs are the same

That's why it's called representation. As opposed to the genuine thing. When you use an attorney, you're turning over your person, your rights, to their care. A lawyer is more like an advisor.

some are ME equivalent

fun fact the dprks military budget is smaller than the NYPD

What are MET and EET?

@Marushia Dark can you have someone who isn't certified but you personally know represent you?

Mechanical engineer technician?

Mechanical Engineering Technology

Electrical Engineering Technology

I see

yup; sometimes a 2 yr associates (tech)

basically

I wish I knew more ME

sometimes a 4 yr

And electronicles

the ones with 'T' dont know maths or theoretical nearly as much

wrong

SOME

correct

@Coolitic The courts won't allow it. My teachers and I have tried and they REALLY don't like that. Think of it like this. You're a doctor and know how to save lives, but you don't have a license so you get in trouble if you try to help, even if you're honest and skilled.

want to see my degree?

"nearly as much"

they still know it ofc

but they dont go into it as much

Dem pixie wrangling for computes is such a confusing mess for me, even though I know how every component in the confuser works separately

I took a 4 yr calc based degree; practiced 10 yrs+ as Electrical Engineering

'T' is basically more akin to applied science

my Degree: Electrcial Enineering... Technology

So the best we've been able to do is teach people how to represent themselves and to study the law. That was partly what motivated me to write my books is to seed legal principles into pop culture and have people learn while they're having fun
