A group of managers were ask to measure the height of a flagpole.
So they go out to the flagpole with ladders and tape measures,
and pretty soon they'er falling off the ladders, dropping the tape
measures - the whole thing is just a mess.
An engineer comes along and sees what they'er trying to do.
walks over. pulls the flagpole out of the ground, lays it flat, measures
it from ene to end, gives the measurement to one of the managers,
and walks away.after the engineer leaves, one manager turns to
another and laughs, "Isn't that just like an engineer? We're looking
for the height and he gives us the lenght,"
