Born to be an engineer

I came, I answered, and I passed.

I was now an Engineer. A dream came true. 0.5+10+2+4 yrs after I first learnt the letters “e-i-g-n-r”, now I was what I was destined to be. An e-n-g-i-n-e-e-r.

I was now an Engineer. Or so I thought.

Now that I was an engineer I need to do something.

Something = Help someone technically who was not an engineer J

And thus an announcement was made to the world that an engineer was available to give solutions to all their problems.And then the cases started pouring

CASE 1:

Case : Please check this blue print or my house and tell if everything is right. Can’t trust other engineers these days. You are also an engineer right? So I came to you.

Solution: Err.. Hmmm..Actually I am not that type of engineer. I am not specialized in that. Sorry can’t help you .

Reaction: I don’t know what that guy studied. May be he flunked in some subjects or did not pass his engineering. I should not have come to him. He is a total waste.

CASE 2

Case : The tubelight in my store room is not working. You are an engineer right? So I came to you. Can you please repair it.

Solution: Err.. Hmmm..Actually I am not that type of engineer. I am not specialized in that. I will still try to help you.

• Checked the starter
• Checked the fuse
• Checked the tubelight
• Gave up
• Advised him to buy a new tubelight.

Reaction: He is good for nothing. Simply claims to be an engineer, If I had to buy a new tubelight why would I have gone to him?

Reaction: He is good for nothing. Simply claims to be an engineer, If I had to buy a new tubelight why would I have gone to him?

CASE 3

Case : I took my bike to repair yesterday. Seems some piston problem. You are an engineer right? So I came to you. Can you please explain what’s it?

Solution: Err.. Hmmm..Actually I am not that type of engineer. I am not specialized in that.Aap jaa sakte hai …namaskaar.

Reaction: Case 1 and case 2 told me not to come to you . Still I came.They were right and you are NOT an engineer.

CASE 4

Case: He he … so you are also going to devrigegotturu?

Yes

I am also going there. My son is a software engineer there.

Oh good, I am also a software engineer.

Really, you also work in Infosys.

Err. No

Wipro?

No

And you said you are a software engineer.

Yaa, I work in Google.

My son is in Infosys. He got x% in engineering and is earning y per annum.If you would have studied like him you would have got into Infosys or Wipro instead of some unknown companies like Google. Send your resume to him; I will check if I can help you in some way.

I got (x+8)% in engineering and am earning (y+2lakhs) per annum.

Oh is it?? But you can never be sure when these small companies which pay more shut down.I still suggest you to join Infosys and be safe like my son.

^%#@#$@%#$@& ,.

CASE 5

Case : So what do you do in your factory?

Not factory, it’s a software company.

Ya ya both are same. What do you do there?

We write software that deals with mobile communication

Oh mobile company? My mobile battery gets discharged very soon. You work in that company only .Can you please repair it?
