You might be an engineer if...


Have you ever wondered if it's possible to spot an engineer in a crowd? Here's a simple method. Just count the number of items sticking out of the shirt pocket.

Scoring:

Ball point pen = 0 points
2 ball point pens = 1 points
3 or more = 5 points

Felt tip marker = 1 point
2 or more = 5 points

Pocket protector = 3 points (This would be higher, but there's a fair likelihood that you may be dealing with a different math or science related professional)

USB drive or other electronic device = 5 points

Flower or corsage = -50

The more points, the higher the likelihood that you are looking at an engineer.
