Hell

[Guest guest]

An engineer dies and reports to the Pearly Gates. St. Peter

checks his dossier and says: "Ah, you're an engineer, but

you worked for a high-tech startup company and got

rich. You've had too good of a life,

so now you can't come in here."

So the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is

let in. Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the

level of comfort in hell, and starts designing and

building improvements. After a while, they've got air

conditioning and flush toilets and escalators. The

computers are all upgraded and there are speaker wires

running to every room. Even the clocks on the VCRs are

set. The engineer becomes a pretty popular guy.

One day God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with

a sneer, "So, how's it going down there in hell?"

Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We've got air

conditioning and flush toilets and escalators. The computers

are faster than ever and we've got music in every

room. There's no telling what this engineer

is going to come up with next."

God replies, "What??? You've got an engineer? That's a

mistake, he should never have gotten

down there! Send him up here, now."

Satan shouts back, "No way! I like having an engineer

on the staff, and I'm keeping him."

God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."

Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right....and

just where are YOU going to find a lawyer?"
