But... what is "technology"? The word was invented long before people started using it as lazy slang for computers etc., in fact before there were computers to call "technology". Whatever its origin it's a become a very lazy word with no real meaning, and often a euphemism for engineering by those who despise engineering but are glad to use its benefits.

"Technician" is equally woolly but is normally applied to those who make, maintain or operate technical equipment at a higher skill level than simple assembly-line work. So for example you could call a telephone-exchange maintainer, or diesel-engine repairer, or IT-system installer, or an all-round fitter and machinist, a "technician".

A technician does not study "technology" beyond learning what is necessary for his or her work, but the "ology" suggests "technology" is itself a study - that of Science and its practical application, i.e., Engineering. Be it computers, cars or bridges.
