97 ! regarding a man’s actual duties on the basis of his job title* Out of 120 valid replies received, only nineteen questionnaires replied with a zero or none to question 1 as to the number of non-engineering jobs the respondent held since graduation from engineering school* Xt is felt, however, that some of these nineteen engineers who claim never to have worked in non-engineering duties are persons who objected to or rejected the definition of non-engineering jobs as requiring less than per cent of the individual's working hours, and that some of these people used their own definition of engineering work in replying to question 1. No attempt was made ; to reclassify any of the i vice presidents, sales managers, professors, and admin- jj istrators ineluded in the aforementioned group of nineteen | engineers. It may be concluded, however, that about 90 per cent of the respondents to the survey were graduate engineers who had held at least one job in a capacity not considered as engineering work according to the definition given herein. As was to be expected, a number of respondents disliked being classified as non-engineers on the basis of the definition given in question 1 of the questionnaire or on the basis of their job title. Five comments were received on this subject. A production superintendent
