Me: “So does the Engineering division have brown bag lunches regularly?”

 

Supervisor [pause, blink blink]: “I need a more precise definition of that term.”

Me: I really like writing and editing, and I’m really good at it…

 

Supervisor [unblinking bafflement]: So…you…actually like writing?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?

Retiring engineer’s favorite engineer joke:

 

How can you tell the difference between an introverted and an extroverted engineer?

 

An extroverted engineer stares at your shoes while they talk.
