Understanding Engineers #4
What is the difference between mechanical engineers and civil engineers?
Mechanical engineers build weapons. Civil engineers build targets.
Understanding Engineers #5
The graduate with a science degree asks, “Why does it work?”
The graduate with an engineering degree asks, “How 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 #6
Three engineering students were gathered together discussing who must have
designed 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, “No, actually it had to have been a civil engineer. Who
else would run a toxic waste pipeline through a recreational area?”
Understanding Engineers #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 #8
An engineer was crossing a road one day, when a frog called out to him and
said, “If you kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess.” He bent over,
picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket. The frog spoke up again and
said, “If you kiss me, I’ll turn back into a beautiful princess and stay
with you for one week.”
The engineer took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it
to the pocket.
The frog then cried out, “If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess,
I’ll stay with you for one week and do anything you want.”
Again, the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his
pocket.
Finally, the frog asked, “What is the matter? I’ve told you I’m a beautiful
princess and that I’ll stay with you for one week and do anything you want.
Why won’t you kiss me?”
The engineer said, “Look, I’m an engineer. I don’t have time for a
girlfriend, but a talking frog - now that’s cool.”
Two engineers???
Two engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking at its top. A
woman walked by and asked what they were doing.
“We’re supposed to find the height of this flagpole,” said one, “but we
don’t have a ladder.”
The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a couple of bolts, and laid
the pole down on the ground. Then she took a tape measure from her
pocketbook, took a measurement, and announced, “Twenty one feet, six
inches,” and walked away.
One engineer shook his head and laughed, “A lot of good that does us. We ask
for the height and she gives us the length!”
Both engineers have since quit their engineering jobs and are currently
serving in the United States Congress.
