The two I saw had no mechanical sense whatsoever.


There are plenty of men like that too. Gender is not a reliable
indicator of whether someone possesses any particular type of sense.

I worked somewhere where the male H&S idiot used to lock off the tearoom
if the tealady (how quaint) wasn't in, "in case someone burn themselves
on the urn". FFS... Electronic Engineering department too.

Bit different to the Mech Eng department I worked in the in late 80's.
Got stuck in the lift as the doors had come unaligned with each other.
Anyway, one of the lecturers (big beard, pipe, tweed jacket, proper
mechanical bloke) let me out with the door key. Then rammed his arm
between the doors, jiggled the mechanism back into line and wandered
off... I took the stairs after that... Oh, and we had a bloody big urn
balanced on the fridge right by the door in that tearoom...
