chemical engineer 

A motherfucker who sold their soul to hours upon hours of endless studying and crying because they want to make bank starting out of college. Done so in only 4 to 5 years.

Little Billy decided to become a chemical engineer. He hasn't laughed or smiled in 8 years.

Chemical Engineer 

A person who knows enough chemistry to confuse a chemist, enough math to confuse a mathematician, and enough physics to confuse themselves.

Chemical Engineer: "hear this one. An electron and a positron walk into a bar"
*awkward pause*
Person: "And, what happens?"
Chemical Engineer: "yea it still confuses me as well"

chemical process engineer 

When you were 18, the university recruiters told you chemical engineering had "so much variety" and "so many opportunities!" Now, you're graduating 4 years later and have realized that your only two options include oil refining (making gasoline from crude oil) and plastics (making polyethylene from ethylene).

This is probably okay, because whatever you suffer in breathing in toluene all day wearing dark coverall FRC's in 95°F weather, you'll make up for with a 6-digit salary right out of school. You also find yourself with a strangely intimate understanding of how everything around you works, like swimming pools, HVAC, cars, plumbing... everything.

Snooty grad-school materials researcher: "So what are you doing after you graduate?"

You: "I'll be working for a (Exxon/Valero/TOTAL/Phillips66/Shell/Citgo/Lyondell/BP) refinery."

SNGSMR: "Oh, so you're *just* a chemical process engineer?"

You: *grabbing another beer, talking to someone else, driving home in your brand new car...*

chemical engineering 

1) Hardest of the engineering disciplines and probably the hardest undergrad major ever. By the time you are three years into it, you'll hear strange noises at night and get increasingly paranoid. Some go insane or so the legends tell.
2) making other majors sound worthless
3) intense rape

Dude 1: "What's your major man?"
Dude 2: "Chemical Engineering"
Dude 1: "...how long do you think you'll last?"
