the last engineer Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 An engineer, of the BMW Corporation died and went to heaven. At the gates St. Peter told him, "Since you ' ve been such a good man and your vehicles have changed the world, your reward is, you can hang out with anyone you want in Heaven". The Engineer thought about it for a minute and then said, "I want to hang out with God." St. Peter took him to the Throne Room, and introduced him to God. He then asked God, "Hey, aren 't you the inventor of woman?" God said, "Ah, yes." "Well," said the engineer, "professional to professional, you have some major design flaws in your invention. (1) There' s too much inconsistency in the front-end protrusion. (2) It chatters constantly at high speeds. (3) Most of the rear ends are too soft and wobble too much. (4) The intake is placed way to close to the exhaust. And finally, (5) The maintenance costs are outrageous." "Hmmm, you may have some good points there," replied God, "Hold on." God went to his Celestial super computer, typed in a few words and waited for the results. The computer printed out a slip of paper and God read "Well, it may be true that my invention is flawed," God said to the engineer, "but according to these numbers, more men are riding my invention than yours."

THE engineer stood at the golden gates, his poor head bent and low and when the great man opened up, he asked which way to go. st peter said what was your task before you ended here. lad said an engineer, for going on 60 year st peter frowned, he gave a sigh, his brow cleft at the middle, he said you've had your share of hell, come in and grab a fiddle.
