Maintenance engineers also! :rolleyes:

I just consider the source, smile condescendingly, and continue my life!:D


Do realize these asinine job titles are dreamed up by individuals not accustomed to the rigors of precise thinking that is a prerequisite for becoming an engineer. Need I elaborate by revealing their job title!;)

Idiots are born!

Mental dwarfs are born.

Stupidity is a sloppy thinking habit.

Some engineers are not immune.(sad to say!)

Some engineers become managers.:eek:
