[dickm]

SWMBO used to work among engineers and insists there was no such person as a CIVIL engineer.

I can categorically confirm that this is untrue, biscuits and cakes during the day, sure that's fine but its all about the pub after 6pm!
(I'm a Civil Engineer)
(With a beer belly!)

Most of ours have the beer belly.... they also have kids and wives, though. Must mean no money for beer.

You know the motivational speaker's rocks-pebbles-sand thingy where they tell you to reorganise your life to focus on the big stuff by talking about how much you can stuff in a jar?

Well, in the engineers version, you put the rocks in the jar first, then the pebbles, then the sand, and then you pour in the beer because there's always room for beer
