pAutomatator 

pAutomatators is a term used by engineering fanatics to refer to themselves. The namesake refers to engineers specifically working in process automation and instrumentation.

The origin of the word is unknown, but its roots can be traced to a common hash tag in the community, #pAuto, standing for process automation. The word seems to be a combination between pAuto and terminator. Pshh engineers right??
