Now, how about some engineering jokes?
Subject: Job Interview
Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked the
young Engineer fresh out of MIT, "And what starting salary were you looking
for?"
The Engineer said, "In the neighborhood of $75,000 a year, depending on
the benefit's package."
The HR Person said, "Well, what would you say to a package of 5-weeks
vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching
retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every 2 years,
say - a red Corvette?"
The Engineer sat up straight and said, "Wow!!! Are you kidding?"
And the HR Person said, "Of course, ... but you started it."

At a recent computer software engineering course in the US, the
participants were given an awkward question to answer:
"If you had just boarded an airliner and discovered that your
team of programmers had been responsible for the flight control
software, how many of you would disembark immediately?"
Among the ensuing forest of raised hands only one man sat motionless.
When asked what he would do, he replied that he would be quite content
to stay on board. With his team's software, he reasoned, the plane
was unlikely to even taxi as far as the runway, let alone take off.

A young engineer was leaving the office at 6 p.m. when he found the CEO
standing in front of a shredder with a piece of paper in his hand.
"Listen," said the CEO, "this is important, and my secretary has left.
Can you make this thing work?"
"Certainly," said the young engineer. He turned the machine on,
inserted the paper, and pressed the start button.
"Excellent, excellent!" said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside
the machine. "I just need one copy."
