Engineer Improvements in Hell
An engineer died and ended up in Hell. He was not pleased with the level of
comfort in Hell, and began to redesign and build improvements. After a while,
they had toilets that flushed, air conditioning and escalators. Everyone grew
very fond of him.
One day God called Satan to mock him.
“So, how's it going down there in Hell?”
Satan replied.
“Hey,
things are great. We've got air conditioning, toilets that flush and escalators,
and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next.”
God was surprised.
“What?
You've got an engineer? That's a mistake. He should never have gotten down there
in the first place. Send him back up here.”
“No way,” replied Satan,
“I like
having an engineer, and I'm keeping him.”
God threatened.
“Send him
back up here now or I'll sue!”
Satan laughed and answered,
“Yeah,
right, and just where are you going to get a lawyer?”
