Three Engineers
« on: November 13, 2026, 06:05:08 PM »
Three engineers in a car:

A mechanical engineer, a chemical engineer and a Microsoft engineer.

The car breaks down...

Mechanical engineer:

"We need to strip down the engine"

Chemical engineer:

"We should drain the petrol and replace it"

Microsoft engineer:

"Let's close the windows and reopen them"
I brake for animals!

Laughing at the flow chart. Problem is I only usually have myself to blame. I’m used to it though.😜
