Engineers Have A Great Sense Of Humor As Seen In These 50 Jokes

ADVERTISEMENT

There’s nothing like engineers. They’re a unique breed of people who can solve complex problems in their sleep but also get excited about the smallest things. They see the world through an analytical lens that most people don’t have, which makes them great problem solvers. I mean, that’s the whole point of being an engineer!

Engineers have been humanity’s backbone since the dawn of time. They created bridges, roads, buildings, dams, rockets, and basically anything we see around us that is not a gift from Mother Nature. They see solving problems as a necessity and use creativity to project a solution from scratch. And don’t let me get started about what happens when you combine a bunch of engineers! I have tons of friends who all graduated from the same engineering university. Their conversations are one of a kind, even if they admit that sometimes they also don’t know what they’re supposed to do either.

Engineering is, no doubt, one of the most critical jobs in the world, but it can be pretty dull or indecipherable for the rest of us! How about we spice it up a little bit with some humor and puns? We selected the best engineering jokes for your fun and pleasure!

Three engineers were riding in a car, went down a hill, and crashed. The mechanical engineer said, "It must be the brakes. Let me check 'em out." The electrical engineer said, "I think it was something in the electrical system. Let me check it out." The software engineer said, "Let's push it back up the hill and run it again."

An old engineer retires. A year or so later, the firm calls him up. They are having a technical issue with a machine he designed. No one else in the company can figure out what's wrong and they want him to help. He aggrees and comes in. He walks up to the machine, opens a panel, and stares into the workings. After a while, he pulls a piece of chalk out of his pocket and scribes an "X" on one particular component. He says, "There's your problem." and leaves. Sure enough, the firm replaces that part and everything is working fine. A few days later, the firm receives a bill from the retired engineer for $100,000. They call him, asking why the bill is so outrageous. He replies, itemizing the bill, "It's $1 for chalk and $99,999 for knowing where to put it."

Most variations of this I've heard are with a screw. Ask him to itemize his bill. 10 cents for the screw, the rest of the very large bill is knowing which screw needed replacing.

Proof: Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power. Postulate 2: Time is Money.

As every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time. And since Knowledge = Power and Time = Money, it is therefore true that Knowledge = Work / Money. Solving for Money, we get: Money = Work / Knowledge. Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of work done.

A mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer are all tasked with determining the properties of a red rubber ball. The mathematician derives a formula based on the size of the ball and the material that the ball is made of and the answers that his solution yields are the different properties of the ball. The physicist performs a series of tests on the red rubber ball and uses the results from his experiments to determine its properties. The engineer whips out his book of "red rubber balls" and writes down what he finds.

Polish Airlines flight PA142 was flying past some beautiful scenery. The pilot came over the intercom and instructed all who were interested in seeing the gorgeous view to look out the right side of the plane. Many passengers did so, and the plane promptly crashed. Why? Too many Poles in the right-half of the plane.

I was on a plane - long time ago - and the pilot was giving commentary on the flight. At one point we were over a famous landmark mark and he said in a monotone voice "so if everybody would like to look out of a window on the right now - (pause while some on the left started getting out of seats) the plane will topple over” I miss those days of travel

Having started as a content creator that made articles for Bored Panda from scratch I climbed my way up to being and editor and then had team lead responsibilities added as well. So it was a pretty natural transition from writing articles and titles as well as preparing the visual part for the articles to making sure others are doing those same tasks as I did before well, answering their questions and guiding them when needed. Eventually I realized editing gives me the most enjoyment and I'm focusing only on that right now.
