A mechanical engineer, an electrical engineer and a software engineer were driving along when the car suddenly stopped.

The mechanical engineer said, "there must be a problem with the valves, we need to get out and adjust them."

The electrical engineer said, "no, there must be a problem with spark plugs, we need to get out and clean them or adjust the gap."

The software engineer said, "why don't we just get out of the car and get back in?"

****************************

Three people were being led to the guillotine during the French Revolution, a duke, a count and an engineer. (They had engineers back then, they just called them Le Engineer)

The duke assumes the position and the blade is released, but it sticks and doesn't drop. The executioner says it is a sign from God and releases him.

The count assumes the position and the blade is released, but it sticks and doesn't drop. The executioner says it is a sign from God and releases him.

Le Engineer is about to assume the position but he takes a look at the guillotine and announces, "hey, I think I see the problem..."





Fwiw, I was a software engineer for about 40 years although they used to call it "programmer" or "programmer/analyst".
How can you tell if an Engineer has a personality?






He will look at the tops of your shoes, instead of his own.

I'm pretty certain a whole team of engineers designed it and the team was well led, but I'll bet there were a few schidtbirds on the team too.

My son's father in law is an engineer and a very good one. He designed machines that can crush and tear up just about anything known to man and they shipped them all over the world. His company was on a show on cable and/or streaming showing his designed machines doing their thing and it was pretty impressive.

He's a great guy and we harass him about his OCD Engineer personality often. My son got him a Tshirt for his birthday a couple years ago that says "Electricians- Because Engineers Need Heroes Too"...

It's amazing to consider the type of engineer Roger mentions,
Then think of the self taught , and the things they built.

Kinda like foresters.
A good family friend could look at a house plan, then go
cut the trees, saw the lumber, and build a building with post and beam framing. When it was all done, there wouldn't enough left over to
build a small chicken coop. All with a few notes on a piece of scrap
paper. Educated types would have needed an engineer, a forester......
Then, they would have blamed Paul for there not being enough lumber.
Exactly, that was brilliant man.

The company I work for has a few engineers that want a part made but, are completely stupid when it comes to drawing up a print for that part. Not all of them but, some. One of them wanted me to drill 4 holes in a aluminum plate. I asked him where he wanted the holes, he said just near the corners. I said, this is a mounting plate, right? He said, yes. I said if I drill these, and it ain't right, I'm not drilling the SOB's again. You can. He left and brought me back a damn print.

West Virginia is such a bad place to live, even us engineers suck. Please don’t come here, don’t even travel through the state, methabillies might get you. Best to avoid us.

Unfortunately, you get hardheaded people in all fields.

Problem is ..... most engineers won't go to the Gemba .... for all you inbred fuQ's (from places like TN, KY) take a minute and look it up.

What I have found is that .... like so many other things .... the millennial generation has fuQ'd up honorable professions like engineering .... moreover the university system is no longer interested in grooming professionals but rather churning out soy boys and femi-Nazis.

On top of all that ..... the universities cater to the g o o k s and red dots for engineering students because the p u s s i e s and soy boys that this country is raising flunk out in all the eng'r schools still worth a damn.

I grew up on a farm in the Dakota's ....' we were so poor had to jerk off the cat to feed the dog ..... I am now a retired PE and lumping all engineers together is like saying all American Indians are red n I g g e r s or like saying all from the south marry their cousins.

Flame on.

Signed,
Retired PE


WTF does that have to do with my post?

Signed,

Someone smarter than a retired PE
