So this engineer died and due to some snafu at the Pearly Gates was given the trip on the down elevator. It took a couple of days for the error to be discovered at which point God gave Satan a call.
Satan asked, “What can I do for you?”
God replied, “It looks like we had a clerical error here and we sent you an engineer by mistake. We’ll need you to ship him back.”
“Ship him back?” Satan asked. “Are you kidding? Since he’s been here he’s put in air conditioning. He’s ventilated all the smoke from these eternal flames.

God said, “Listen, you have to send him back.”
Satan asked, “What are you going to do if I don’t?”
“I’ll ... I’ll ... I’ll sue you! That’s what I’ll do.”
