Title: Engineers

With reference to Mr. Umesh Sakhalkar's jokes about Engineers, here is one made up by Engineers!

A group of Sales and Marketing experts were given the assignment of measuring the height of a flagpole.  Wearing suits and ties, they marched out to the flagpole with their ladders and tape measures, falling all over themselves to get an accurate reading.

An Engineer comes along and sees what they're trying to do.  He walks over, pulls the flagpole out of the ground, lays it flat on the ground, measures it from end to end, gives the measurement to one of the so-called experts, puts the pole back vertically into its slot in the ground and walks away.

After the Engineer has gone, the sales guy turns to a marketing guy and laughs.  "Isn't that just like an Engineer?" he says. "We're looking for the height, and he gives us the length!"
