I started as an EE (actually, as an electronic technician). I never came up through the "traditional" CS tree.
As a result, I regularly see the insides of many snotty noses. It was the main reason that I stopped looking for work in the field; but I was shipping stuff from my very first project[0]. My entire career has consisted of architecting and implementing shipping solutions.
Meh. Whatever creams your Twinkie. I'm not losing much sleep over it, but it is annoying.
