Three engineers got on a crowded lunchtime
bus. They somehow worked their way to the middle of the bus where they found three girls
willing to exchange their seats for a place on the guys' laps. After they got settled and
had ridden that way for a while, the first girl suddenly asked the gentleman under her
whether he might be an electrical engineer.
Surprised, he replied, "Yes, I am! How
did you know?"
"Easy," she said. "I'm
getting shocked by your soldering iron."
Just a few minutes later, the second girl
asked her guy, "Are you a mechanical engineer?"
He said, "Why, yes, ma'am. How did you
know that?"
"Simple," she said, "Your
piston is scraping my cylinder."
Shortly thereafter, the third girl turned
to her fellow and asked, "Are you a civil engineer?"
"I certainly am," he answered.
"How could you have known that?"
"Well," she said, "I figured
it out as soon as your dam burst and flooded my village."
