    Kinda tired of people referring to my work as “IT”

      I think this is a European thing. “IT” is a general term for any tech work, whereas in the US that term refers to technician level network infrastructure and sysadmin work.

        No, people misuse the term in the US, too.

        Still no.

        I’m not setting up routers or configuring laptops.

        I’m designing and building systems.

        “IT” being used this way just means “touch computer.”

            Agreed, anyone that falls below the CIO gets called IT.

        Since I’m an engineer and I engineer things, maybe “engineering.”
