Comprehending Engineers

I got these anecdote long back through mail. I just want to share here as i think,worth to share.

Comprehending Engineers - Take One
*To the optimist, the glass is half full.
*To the pessimist, the glass is half-empty.
*To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Comprehending Engineers - Take Two
What is the difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers?

Mechanical Engineers build weapons. Civil Engineers build targets.

Comprehending Engineers - Take Three
"Normal people ... believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet."

Comprehending Engineers - Take Four
*The graduate with a Science degree asks, "Why does it work?"
*The graduate with an Engineering degree asks, "How does it work?"
*The graduate with an Accounting degree asks, "How much will it cost?"
*The graduate with a Liberal Arts degree asks, "Do you want fries with that?"
