Engineering Hell



An engineer dies and reports to the Pearly Gates. St. Peter checks his
dossier and says: "Ah, you're an engineer, but you worked for a
high-tech startup company and got rich. You've had too good of a life,
so now you can't come in here."
So the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in. Pretty
soon, the engineer is dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell,
and starts designing and building improvements.
After a while, they've got air conditioning and flush toilets and
escalators. The computers are all upgraded and there are speaker wires
running to every room. Even the clocks on the VCRs are set. The
engineer becomes a pretty popular guy.
One day God calls up Satan on the telephone and says with a sneer,
"So, how's it going down there in hell?"
Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We've got air
conditioning and flush toilets and escalators. The computers are
faster than ever and we've got music in every room. There's no telling
what this engineer is going to come up with next."
God replies, "What? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake, he
should never have gotten down there! Send him back up here, now."
Satan shouts back, "No way! I like having an engineer on the staff,
and I'm keeping him."
God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."
Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right... and just where
are YOU going to find a lawyer?"
