Do you have what it takes to be an engineer?

[Beebo]

At least one ambiguous answer, one question that is either very clever or wrongly expressed, and one where pedants (and what profession would you expect to find pedants in?) would say they wrote it wrong. And what's any of it got to do with logic?

Was that the question about the use of sticks to light a fire? Friction or energy? Could be both.

Too easy. If that is what it takes to be an engineer, where do I sign to make the mega-bucks?[/QUOTE]
Politics ... certainly no decent money in engineering anymore. Race to the bottom is a phrase that describes it most accurately

I don't know my score, but I took it apart and reassembled it with just a hammer and pliers, and I've managed to only have two screws left over.

I had four wooden dowels left over, took half of the wretched cupboard to pieces again, couldn't find the empty holes, and gave up.

Now this is where your intelligence let you down...
You had the parts that are missing from every feckers box...Ha Ha

Maybe the empty holes were at the bottom of the other bag?

Full marks obvs.

100%
The last 30+ years haven't been wasted then.

Bit the bullet, 100% maybe I should ask for a pay rise

7. The threshold is 7. Basic logic test, innit.

100% with a few guesses.
I've believed for years that our educational system should include aptitude testing, and guide people towards what they are best at. If I knew what I know now I would never have ended up in IT. Although I enjoy it, I'm just as good at accounts, but sailed an aptitude test that pointed towards mechanical engineering.
The same test suggested air traffic control, which I think would have been a bit scary

Yesterday I couldn't even spell 'Injinear', today I is one!

100% and it's going on the CV, I need all the help I can get at the moment!

Last year I couldn't spell engineer. This year I are one

Just went through all the posts to see if anyone had told this joke.

Looks like it's covered pretty thoroughly.

(my version is "four years ago .... and now I are one")

My wife is an engineer. Luckily she isn't on here!
