One topic not broached is cheapness. I don't know too many that are as tight with dollar as bark on a tree.

You know, I never thought about this until now but I think you're right. Most of us are pretty darn cheap.

How do you tell if an engineer is an introvert or an extrovert?

An engineer who is an introvert stares at his shoes when he talks to you; an extrovert stares at your shoes.

Just leave out food after a meeting and see how quickly it disappears. Some places, we have to leave someone to guard food so that the people involved with the meeting could eat before the scavengers got to it. At one company I worked for, we had engineers show up to meetings they weren't invited to, just for lunch.

We had this one guy that actually brought his family to a "off-site" meeting one time so they could eat off the serving line. This guy was legend.

"Program Managers. I hate these guys."

I think I'm cheap but I'm a drunken sailor on shore leave compared to a couple of guys I know.

Understanding Engineers #1

Two engineering students were biking across a university campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?" The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday, minding my own business, when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike, threw it to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want." The first engineer nodded approvingly and said, "Good choice: The clothes probably wouldn't have fit you anyway."

This one reminded me of this

My roommate from most of undergrad had that talk with his aging grandmother.

G - What are you studying in school?
R - I'm studying to become an engineer.
G - Well you be sure to give me a ride on that train when you come through town.
R - uhh..... Yes Ma'am... I sure will....
