Engineers

[Sapphire]

Normal people believe if it ain't broke don't fix it

 

Engineers believe if it ain't broke it doesn't have enough features yet

 

 

[ayavner]

thought that was Marketing...

To an engineer, if it's broken it's been sufficiently engineered.

 

The graduate with a science degree asks why does it work?

 

The graduate with an engineering degree asks how does it work?

 

The graduate with an accounting degree asks how much does it cost?

 

The graduate with a liberal arts degree asks "do you want fries with that"

And government says: "If it ain't broke, fix it until it is"

Nothing says unprofessionalism like wrinkles in the duct tape!

Pessimist- Glass half empty.

 

Optimist - Glass half full.

 

Engineer- Glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

 

 

[Guest aussieaviatrix]

As an engineering student, I can totally relate!!

 

 

[Guest aussieaviatrix]

In an Exam -

 

Q. - Prove that 2+2=0.

 

Art student - this question is out of syllabus.

 

Commerce student - problem is not well defined.

 

Doctor - research in progress but no result found.

 

Engineering student - it is so simple...

 

2+2=0

 

two+two=0

 

tw(0+0)=0

 

if tw=0

 

than 0+0=0

 

0=0

 

ENGINEERS ARE INCREDIBLE !

Flying is too much hard work-we need more of this

 

Three guys are condemmed to die by the guillotine

 

The first one the blade gets stuck half way and he is free to go

 

The second one the blade gets stuck again and he is free to go

 

The third one [an engineer] before they drop the blade he yells, "wait

 

I know what's wrong"

That must be a mechanical engineer talking. We structural engineers would say you can fit twice as much in.

Aircraft engineers think that way (bigger than it needs to be). To reach the point, where you can't take anything more away to make it lighter, and to add anything would be unnecessary.

This is along the line that argues little boats are stronger and safer than big ships. If you doubt little boats are stronger and safer, have a look at the little boats people get into when the big ship gets into trouble...
