If the "job title" is published, as if on a business card or even a website stating the title of someone who is unlicensed, you can find yourself, and the company in for a nice little fine.....No matter what kind of "hissy fit" you throw.
You guys are amazing
I have worked with probably 100 folks (including myself at one time) who have had engineer in their job title. I am talking about people working on multi billion dollar projects for the likes of Turner/Skanska/Bechtel/Balfour Beaty and have not once heard any employee or corporate executive even balk at the title. This thread was about commercial construction which if you had any experience in would know that is a standard title for an entry level person.
I guess by the law you may be right in LA, although I haven't worked there so couldn't tell you. But if you had any experience in industry, you'd understand what was being discussed here.

most of the engineering companies I've worked far would not let us use the word in email signatures or on business cards unless we were licensed
but at the same time, i see "engineers" of all types, from garbage men, to janitors, to CAD engineers, so the word is thrown around a good bit
I don't see how Lapels owns the rights to the word or whatever, but I know it is considered a pretty big deal for a non-licensed engineer to advertise engineering services

I used to work for one of these companies, and, believe me, if there was any potential threat of a lawsuit because of the title "Project/Field Engineer", the job title would be renamed.
