I was chatting one day that fresh graduate from engineering field aren't called 'Graduate Engineer' in certain firms. It give the impression that you are an amateur engineer. Instead, some are called 'Engineering Consultant'. Now, that kind of designation surely a please to the ears of any clients. I asked myself why should we called the orthodox name of Graduate Engineer, Assistant Engineer, Senior Engineer which is so plain and dull. Why not get a position name like:
I was understood that there is even 'Rubbish Engineer' which means you sweep everything that are thrown to you. Sort of like a DBKL worker. Han Ching mentioned to me when we are discussing this matter that part-timer giving samples to passer-by in supermarket does not go by the title 'Promoter' anymore. Guess what they are called?
Just because you are doing the same thing everyday with the same tagline of:
without any pronunciation mistake does not justify the title of specialist!
I go to toilet everyday. Does that mean I can called myself
So back to my early argument, both are people who studied 4 years in engineering course. Same job scope. But one looks like high tech exercise machine in the gym.
The other one looks like old-fashion recreational playing equipment in the park. That brought us to the title of this post. When Proton Meets Lotus. You can have the engine name of Hibiscus, Rose, or Sunflower. Customers will only give face to once-grand-but-then-go-bankrupt name 'Lotus'.
I have a colleague who says that you can call him every darn thing in the world. As long as long you pay him high salary.
