God and the Devil discuss an Engineer

Although locked in fierce competition for what seems like forever, God and the Devil meet once every week for coffee just to catch up with each other.

One week they're in heaven and the next they're in hell.

When it was God's turn to host, the Devil was whistling a happy tune as he walked through the gates and wore a huge smile as he plopped down in the golden chair. God poured a cup and said, "You look pretty pleased with yourself."

"Yeah," said the Devil, "Things are really looking up since I got that engineer last week. He's put in escalators and flush toilets, and he even found a way to control the heat in those old furnaces. I've been meaning to thank you for turning him away up here."

God looked stunned, and almost spilled coffee into the saucer. "You know that you're not supposed to get any engineers,". "Um... Peter was breaking in some new help at the gates last week, and they must have made a mistake. Just send him back up and we'll straighten it out."

But the Devil just chuckled and said, "No. I think I'll keep him. He was talking about looking into better ventilation this week. I can see why you keep them all for yourself."

"Send him back," demanded God
"No," smirked the Devil.
God thundered, "Send him back, or..."
"Or what?" the Devil asked.
"Or I'll sue," finished God.

The Devil chuckled again. "Where are you going to get a lawyer?"
