An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates. St. Peter checks his dossier and says, "Ah, you're an engineer -- you're in the wrong place." So the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is admitted.
Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell, and, as is the wont for engineers, starts designing and building improvements. After a while, they've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer is a pretty popular guy.
One day God calls Satan up on the telephone and asks, "So how's it going down there in hell?"Satan replies, "Hey things are going great. We've got air conditioning, flushing toilets and working escalators, and there's no telling what an engineer is going to come up with next."
God replies, "What You've got an engineer? That's a mistake -- he should never have gotten down there; send him up here." Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff, and I'm keeping him."
God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."
Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah right. And just where are you going to get a lawyer?"

Brilliant!
Reminds me of a joke about Margaret Thatcher. This was a joke about her when she was responsible for the closure of the steel works in the North East.
Now the joke - Margaret Thatcher died and ended up outside the pearly gates. There was a queue and, not being backward in coming forward, she marched up to the front to be met by St Peter, who barred her path.
Hold on there, he said, you have to wait your turn, get to the back of the queue.
She was not happy, but off she went. Eventually, reaching the front she made to go through the pearly gates but Peter, once again stopped her.
You can't go in until I've checked - now what is your name?
Margaret Thatcher, she said, haughtily.
Peter checked up and down his list, all pages but could not find her name.
What did you do on earth? he asked.
I was the first woman Prime Minister of Great Britain, she said.
Oh, that Margaret Thatcher! Well you can't come in here, you have to go down there, he said, pointing towards hell.
So off she was taken to hell.
A couple of weeks later St Peter had a phone call from Satan.
Hi Peter he said, how are you?
Ok, said Peter, and how are you?
Terrible, said Satan, it's that Thatcher woman. You'll have to have her up there, I don't want her down here any longer.
Why is that? said Peter.
Well she's only been down here a fortnight and she's closed down 2 of my furnaces already!!!

LOL! That's funny. As long as you don't take it as a serious insult to lawyers. As a good hearted joke this is great.
Thnx for putting this out. It's a good one...
