    I'm a mechanical engineer, could have my EIT certificate if I send the state some money and my transcripts. But, I like to work for small, family owned businesses and they usually don't care too much about that stuff. I currently work at a German company that makes workholding equipment, hammers, aviation parts and "standard parts". Basically, I design fixtures and answer the hard questions.
