Yeah, ok. While the industry is in a slump, it's very much in it's prime years. Been doing this shite for 15 yrs and making bank dude.

Hand drawing on a drafting board? Sure. But I've been in the "drafting" profession for 5 years now, and there is way more to this job than what the average Joe might know about. It's slow going right now in petrochem, but it's not a disappearing job.

Oddly enough, I find the guy who said Architect as spot on. I graduated from LSU with an Architecture degree, industry was shite, stumbled into my current job out of pure good fortune when things were booming. It can be a hidden jewel of a career in this part of the country. I certainly don't ever plan on giving it up for the pennies of an architecture career.
