#105053 - Understanding engineers
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hello Vignesh,

I don't know what blogger(s) are but I did come across some interesting data about engineers which I though I would share.

Regards,

Charles Bannister

Understanding engineers - Take 1

Two engineering students crossing the campus when
one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?"

The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking
along yesterday minding my own business when a
beautiful woman rode up on this bike. She threw the
bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and
said, "Take what you want."

The first engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice;
the clothes probably wouldn't have fit."

To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the
pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer,
the glass is twice as big as it needs to be

Understanding Engineers - Take 3

A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting
one morning for a particularly slow group of
golfers.
The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys?
We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!"

The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've
never seen such ineptitude!"

The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greens
keeper. Let's have a word with him. Hi George!
Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're
rather slow, aren't they?"

The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a
group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight
saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we
always let them play for free anytime."

The group was silent for a moment. The pastor
said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special
prayer for them tonight."

The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to
contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's
anything he can do for them."

The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at
night?"

Understanding Engineers - Take 4

What is the difference between mechanical
engineers and civil engineers?

Mechanical engineers build weapons, and civil
engineers build targets.

Understanding Engineers - Take 5

The graduate with an Engineering degree asks,
"How does it work?"

The graduate with a Science degree asks, "Why
does it work?"

The graduate with an Accounting degree asks, "How
much will it cost?"

The graduate with an Arts degree asks, "Do you
want fries with that?"

Understanding Engineers - Take 6

Three engineering students were discussing the
possible designers of the human body. One said,
"It was a mechanical engineer." Just look at all the
joints."

Another said, "No, it was an electrical engineer.
The nervous system has many thousands of
electrical connections."

The last one said, "Actually it was a civil
engineer.
Who else would run a toxic waste pipeline through
a recreational area?"

Understanding Engineers - Take 7

"Normal people believe that if it ain't broke,
don't fix it."

Engineers believe that "if it ain't broke, it
doesn't have enough features yet"

Understanding Engineers - Take 8

An architect, an artist and an engineer were
discussing whether it was better to spend time
with the wife or a mistress.

The architect said he enjoyed time with his wife,
building a solid foundation for an enduring
relationship.

The artist said he enjoyed time with his mistress,
because of the passion and mystery he found there.

The engineer said, "I like both."
