The engineer fumed, &quot;What&#8217;s with those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!&quot;   The doctor chimed in, &quot;I don&#8217;t know, but I&#8217;ve never seen such inept golf!&quot;  The priest said, &quot;Here comes the greens-keeper, let&#8217;s have a word with him.&quot;  He said, &quot;Hello George, what&#8217;s wrong with that group ahead of us?  They&#8217;re rather slow, aren&#8217;t they?&quot;  The greens-keeper replied, &quot;oh yes, that&#8217;s a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime!&quot;   The group fell silent for a moment. The priest said, &quot;That&#8217;s so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight.&quot;  The doctor said, &quot;Good idea. I&#8217;m going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there&#8217;s anything he can do for them.&quot;  The engineer said, &quot;Why can&#8217;t they play at night?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\t<u>Understanding Engineers #4:<\/u><\/p>\n<p>\tWhat is the difference between mechanical engineers and civil engineers?<br \/>\n\tMechanical engineers build weapons.<br \/>\n\tCivil engineers build targets.<\/p>\n<p>\t<u>Understanding Engineers #5:<\/u><\/p>\n<p>\tThe graduate with a science degree asks, &quot;Why does it work?&quot;<br \/>\n\tThe graduate with an engineering degree asks, &quot;How does it work?&quot;<br \/>\n\tThe graduate with an accounting degree asks, &quot;How much will it cost?&quot;<br \/>\n\tThe graduate with an arts degree asks, &quot;Do you want fries with that?&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\t<u>Understanding Engineers #6:<\/u><\/p>\n<p>\tNormal people believe that if it ain&#8217;t broke, don&#8217;t fix it.<br \/>\n\tEngineers believe that if it ain&#8217;t broke, it doesn&#8217;t have enough features yet.<\/p>\n<p>\t<u>Understanding Engineers #7:<\/u><\/p>\n<p>\tAn engineer was crossing a road one day, when a frog called out to him and said, &quot;If you kiss me, I&#8217;ll turn into a beautiful princess.&quot;  He bent over, picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket.  The frog spoke up again and said, &quot;If you kiss me, I&#8217;ll turn back into a beautiful princess and stay with you for one week.&quot;  The engineer took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket.  The frog then cried out, &quot;If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I&#8217;ll stay with you for one week and do anything you want.&quot;  Again, the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket. Finally, the frog asked, &quot;What is the matter? I&#8217;ve told you I&#8217;m a beautiful princess and that I&#8217;ll stay with you for one week and do anything you want. Why won&#8217;t you kiss me?&quot;  The engineer said, &quot;Look, I&#8217;m an engineer. I don&#8217;t have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog &#8211; now that&#8217;s cool.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\t<u>And finally:<\/u><\/p>\n<p>\tTwo engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking at its top. A woman walked by and asked what they were doing.  &quot;We&#8217;re supposed to find the height of this flagpole,&quot; said Sven, &quot;but we don&#8217;t have a ladder.&quot;  The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a couple of bolts, and laid the pole down on the ground. Then she took a tape measure from her pocketbook, took a measurement, announced, &quot;Twenty one feet, six inches,&quot; and walked away.  One engineer shook his head and laughed, &quot;A lot of good that does us. We ask for the height and she gives us the length!&quot;  Both engineers have since quit their engineering jobs and are currently serving as elected members of Congress.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> JesJac on April 21, 2016, 7:13 pm<\/p>\n<div>The one about the glass is not quite accurate.<\/p>\n<p>\tGlass what half-way to the top with water.<\/p>\n<p>\tWhen asked if the glass if half full or half empty the engineer said, Neither.
