A variation on this: A workaholic engineer comes home very late one night. His wife is waiting up for him, a furious expression on her face. "I have to come clean," he says. "I'm late because I've been seeing this other woman and . . ." "Don't give me that old excuse!" she snaps. "You were in the lab again, weren't you?"

Sebazz1 2 #4 July 16, 2002 Understanding Engineers .......... A mechanical, electrical, fluid mechanics, and compuetr engineer are all driving down the road in a car when all of a sudden it stops. The mechanical engineer "there is something wrong with the engine lets pop the hood and take a look" The electrical engineer "No no there is something worng with the electrical system I will find th eproblem" The fluid mechanics engineer " You two are both off there is something wrong with the fuel mixture I will fix it" The three engineers looked at the computer engineer and asked "what do yuo think the problem is?" The computer engineer responded " I don't know lets shut it off get out then get back in and turn it on again..........." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 3,090 #11 July 17, 2002 A contractor, an engineer, and a mathematician are trying to help out a farmer. The farmer wants to pen his bull with the minimum possible amount of fencing. "I would go down to the builder's supply, get the shortest sections of chainlink fence I could that would still fit the bull, then build a rectangular pen around it," says the contractor. "I would measure the bull, then create a drawing for construction of a fence that minimized the wasted space," says the engineer. "That way you don't have to waste space using standard fence lengths." The mathematician thinks for a second, grabs an old piece of fence, wraps it around himself, and says "I declare myself to be outside." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
