Working with engineers is very interesting. Take, for instance, this phone call that came from one of my engineers, from the lab.
Him: Sarah, this is Engineer.
Me: Hey. What do you want?
Him: Why aren’t you married?
Me: WHAT?
Him: You like boys, right?
Me: I am not even going to justify that with an answer.
Him: Must not be by choice that you’re not married.
Me: Excuse me?
Him: So what do you like in your men?
Me: Fine. I like them to be rich, handsome, and witty.
Him: What height range?
Me: Taller than me.
Him: So.. 5′4" to.. what’s too tall?
Me: Did you call me for a REASON, Engineer?
Him: What’s too tall?!
Me: Argh! Eight feet. Eight feet is too tall.
Him: I’m making a spreadsheet of your wants and needs in a man.
Me: I’m sorry?
Him: I’m going to cross reference it with what we, as a lab, can offer you.
Me: I’m hanging up.
Him: Because you should be married by now.
Me: Hear the click?
Him: Unless you’re gay.
Me: That’s it. I’m coming down there.
Him: Ha! I changed the access code. You can’t get in.
Me: WATCH ME.
Him: Unless you know what Yoda’s middle name was..
