    Oh ok nice. I went to school for construction management and was very close to switching majors to civil engineering. But i was a shitty student so its a good thing i didn't switch majors lol.

    Civils often get shit on in the engineering world. Apparently we're the bottom of the barrel, at least that's the attitude of some other disciplines :rolleyes:

    I like the construction side of my business but for the long run you need to be in the service side

    A civil engineer designed the human body. Who else would put a play ground in the middle of a waste removal system?

    You need the whole joke.

    Three engineering students were gathered together discussing the
    possible designers of the human body. One said, "It was a mechanical
    engineer. Just look at all the joints."

    Another said, "No, it was an electrical engineer. The nervous system
    has many thousands of electrical connections."

    The last said, "Actually it was a civil engineer. Who else would run a
    toxic waste pipeline through a recreational area?"

    Here's the first version I heard of that joke:
    The inventor of the Harley-Davidson motorcycle, Arthur Davidson, died and went to heaven. At the gates, St. Peter told Arthur, "Since you've been such a good man and your motorcycles have changed the world, your reward is that you can hang out with anyone you want to in heaven."

    Arthur thought about it for a minute and then said, "I want to hang out With God." St. Peter took Arthur to the Throne Room, and introduced him to God

    God recognized Arthur and commented, "Okay, so you were the one who invented the Harley-Davidson motorcycle?"

    Arthur said, "Yeah, that's me...."

    God commented: "Well, what's the big deal in inventing something that's pretty unstable makes noise and pollution and can't run without a road?"

    Arthur was apparently embarrassed, but finally spoke, "Excuse me, but aren't you the inventor of woman?"

    God said, "Ah, yes."

    "Well," said Arthur, "professional to professional, you have some major design flaws in your invention:

    1. There's too much inconsistency in the front-end protrusion.

    2. It chatters constantly at high speeds.

    3. Most rear ends are too soft and wobble too much.

    4. The intake is placed way too close to the exhaust.

    5. The maintenance costs are outrageous!! !!

    "Hmmmmm, you may have some good points there," replied God, "hold on."

    God went to his Celestial supercomputer, typed in a few words and waited for the results. The computer printed out a slip of paper and God read it.

    "Well, it may be true that my invention is flawed," God said to Arthur, "but according to these numbers, more men are riding my invention than yours."

    AMEN !!!!
