I have a friend that is an engineer at Transportation. I'll tell him you're coming.

It is literally impossible. I don't think E7 can even make that little. E7 is well over $100k, and is reserved for section heads and higher.

This is a thread where volod has severely overplayed his hand.

ETA: Not to mention you have to be a PE to have that position.

Stop being a combative fairy. I was saying it's plausible to not be entry level with a graduate degree. It's how companies can give hire salaries to more qualified candidates. You ole dickbutt always wanna fricking argue with people here.

I believe him. I don't know shite about their tiers and such. But I do know a new engineer or analyst at many companies AND government jobs don't always start at programmer analyst 1 or engineer 1 if they are highly recruited(degree from good school or grad degree).

He's still a cocknocker

Exactly. That's what I said earlier. It's at least a section head to be a 7. Without PE, you can only be in training or a rotational job.

At DOTD, grad degree is 1 year extra in experience. To make engineer, you need the PE plus 4 years of experience usually gained through the EIT.

Congrats on landing a government job. Enjoy your 3 months of vacation and being promoted to your level of incompetence. Don't let your coworkers apathy devour your soul.

Don't be a fool and buy a fricking car you can't afford. When I graduated Pharmacy school making 130k I drove a 2 tone Mazda Protege so I could hammer on my massive pile of student loan debt.

Man you should have just been an operator at a refinery or a welder. You'd make double, work less hours and actually do something worth a damn.
