10 jokes only engineers will understand

Engineers, the most laughed at profession in society. If it wasn't for engineers, shoe slesmen would have been first. My friend just about married an engineer but she sobered up in time to avoid the embarrassment. wayne.
 
Had a next door neighbour once who was a highly qualified electrical design engineer who worked for a very large electricity corporation. He was attempting to repair his lawn mower. Worked on it all weekend and then went to buy a new one on Monday because he didn't know how to put it back together. He came over to ask me "how do you remove the Spark Plug?"
All this talk about Slide Rules, Scientific Calculators and Computers, I do'nt understand. I still use one of these.:D:D:D:D:D

Part of their degree should contain courses in common sense and sound judgment. Wayne. .
 
Back in the day I could draw all morning and erase all afternoon and still have something left on my drawing.

Now I draw all day and forget to save before shutting down or the power goes out and have nothing on my drawings

Now that's progress
 
Thinking of a slide rule reminded me that a couple of weeks ago a co-worker asked me if I knew how to use vernier calipers. I told him I thought I could remember but as soon as he handed them to me I knew I was in trouble.

I found that I could not even see well enough see the vernier much less read it. :p:p
