Engineer's Creed
Code of Ethics
As a Professional Engineer, I dedicate my professional knowledge and skill to the advancement and betterment of human welfare.
I pledge:
| |
To give the utmost of performance; |
| |
To participate in none but honest enterprise; |
| |
To live and work according to the laws of man and the highest standards of professional conduct; |
| |
To place service before profit, the honor and standing of the profession before personal advantage, and the public welfare above all other considerations. |
In humility and with need for Divine Guidance, I make this pledge.
Adopted by The National Society of Professional Engineers June 1954
Time for a Joke??
Surgery: Five surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work.
The first said, "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered."
The second said, "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order."
The third said, "I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded."
The fourth one said, "I like to operate on lawyers. They're heartless, spineless, gutless, and their heads and their butts are interchangeable."
Fifth surgeon said, "I like Engineers...they always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end..."
