The cultural status of engineers in the UK

Re my early spelling mistake "latheing"……….if you think that is bad you should see my writing…..and we all know that doctors and engineers have the poorest handwriting! I am sure we can all agree on that

Regards to all….

Just to lighten the mood lads:

Three graduate engineers were discussing who might have been responsible for the design of the human body. The first one said "Think of all the joints etc. it must have been a mechanical engineer". The second one said "No no, what about all the electrical impulses and nerves etc? It must have been an electrical engineer". The third graduate was shaking his head, "You are both wrong, the human body was designed by a civil engineer – who else would run a waste pipe through a recreational area"?

The engineering graduate asks "How does that work?"

The physics graduate asks "Why does that work?"

The arts graduate asks "You want fries with that?"
