Every profession has experiences that are hazards of the trade, so to speak. What about engineering? What funny or amusing things have happened to you that only an engineer could relate to or would find funny. Here's an example of what an engineer shared with me: flick solder and it lands on your hand and burns you. Can your relate....or, not funny enough? Share your experiences in this discussion. Thanks.
Boss asked me to shift a terminal into the board room for a presentation which I duly did. 10 mins later he comes and finds me and asks why it isn’t working and I told him no idea, it certainly was when I turned it off and moved it. He called an engineer - two and a half hour drive from Dublin - who rocked up, flipped the switch on the wall socket, left a bill for a few hundred Punts and left.
To this day I’m not sure who was at fault
