These engineering and science tech-centric
jokes, song parodies, anecdotes and assorted humor have been collected from friends

light-hearted and clean and sometimes slightly assaultive to the easily-offended,
so you are forewarned. It is all workplace-safe.

- A new
employee calls the Help Desk to complain that there's something wrong with her password. No,
it's not the usual caps-lock problem.
"The problem is that whenever I type the password, it
just shows stars," she says. "Those asterisks are to protect you," the Help Desk technician
explains, "so if someone were standing behind you, they wouldn't be able to read your
