During the last oil patch downturn an out of work PetE with an MS was submitting applications everywhere. Finally, he gets an interview at a Burger King. The manager is impressed with the guys enthusiasm and intuitive grasp of the fry oil reservoir and he also has a mean burger flip. Eventually though, the manager declines to hire him. As he's leaving, he asks why he didn't get a position and the manager responds... "Well, all of my Petroleum Engineers have PhDs"...

We were sitting in an "eating joint" one morning mowing through a lot of cardio high impact food. Someone makes a comment about how this stuff is hell on blood pressure and without breaking stride the mechanical engineer among us, with a mouth half full of scrambled eggs and sausage, blurts out "High preffure sysfems are more efficient"...

Rule #1 in Electronics design ... there are NO bugs ... just undocumented features

An engineer is someone who can do with $1 what any damn fool can do with $2

An engineer is someone who can do with $1, $15 in new tools, and 6 hours what the mechanic can do with $20.00/hour in 15 minutes.

My hubby (also an attorney) was dragged kicking and screaming into Word. We switched at home as well, because he often brings work home. It seems more stable than WordPerfect, but a lot less flexible, especially for the more creative stuff I do with the kids -- manipulating fonts, images, etc. Sigh. I think the WordPerfect Suite had Quattro Pro instead of Excel.... I don't think that transition was quite as difficult, but he misses Quattro, too.
