An engineer dies . . . and goes to Hell. Dissatisfied with the level of comfort, he starts designing and building improvements. After a while, Hell has air conditioning, flush toilets and escalators.
The engineer is a pretty popular guy.
One day God calls and asks Satan, "So, how's it going down there?"
Satan says, "Hey things are going great. We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next."
God is horrified. "What? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake - he should never have gone down there! You know all engineers go to Heaven. Send him up here! "
Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on staff. I'm keeping him."
God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."
"Yeah, right," Satan laughs, "and where are you going to get a lawyer?"

LOL...Thanks for the laugh.
good one except I was hoping the engineer would have gone to hell and be forced to maintain all the bad designs he thought was perfect.
Sorry the ending disappointed you. Feel free to rewrite and post your version.

OH! don't get me wrong; it was a great ending, I just have this disdain for engineers because of their attitude that everything they draw is perfect like they walk on water or something. Your joke was fabulous and probably true.
You know why so many mathematically inclined people become engineers? It's because they don't have the personalities to become IRS agents.
