    I’m an engineer too.

    You’re an idiot, we should get paid more, the money goes to the moron marketing druids, not the ones who actually make/patent things like us.

    You don’t seem smart enough to be a very good engineer, but then again you typed this almost certainly using tech I worked on.

      Engineers are absolutely the shittest negotiators. They bring so much fucking value and are happy to get a mug and a pat on the back for inventing something that makes a company millions. Compare that to sales where often the top performer can make close to the CEOs pay.
