Nope, he's no engineer, that would be a little close to home

Since you're begging for it, here is the classic:

Understanding Engineers - Take Two:


To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

And Phil, I'm not having digs. I'm just amazed that some perfectly normal-looking human beings can have such bizarre brains....  It's curiosity more than anything else (anthropology / entomology, who knows ).

With regards to your joke, I would have to take issue with it, and say that from an engineering point of view it has a factor of safety of two, and that the econimist would be the one complaining that the glass was bigger than it needed to be!  Yes I do realises this proves a point about the mind of an engineer (or at least mine), but who am I to argue with my genes!

That's another thing about engineers! It runs in families!! Are you all related, have you all got a common ancestor??

And what about the very first engineer?? What was his Dad's job???

Dunno - but I'm definitely a 3rd generation engineer, and my eldest is in distinct danger of becoming the 4th generation...

Phil you appear to be a consultant saying the glass has an FOS of 2.  Mind you a Hairy a%sed contractor wouldn't argue about the size, he would ask if he could get away with a paper cup instead of the glass...

An man is walking along and sees a blonde frog sitting on a rock.  The frog says to the engineer "if you kiss me I'll turn into a beautiful princess and I will give you a million pounds".  The man picks up the frog, smiles at it and puts it in his pocket.  So the frog tries again "if you kiss me I will turn into a beautiful princess and I will give you a million pounds and I will marry you", but the man just smiles at the frog and leaves it in his pocket.  The frog has one last try "if you kiss me, I will turn into a princess, give you a million pounds, marry you and let you exercise your conjugal rights in any way you like".  But the man still just smiles and puts the frog in his pocket.  Eventually the frog asks the man what is wrong with all her offers.  The man replies "What would I wnat with all of that?  I am an engineer and all my friends are engineers.  They aren't interested in any of that, but a talking frog, now that's cool!!"
