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 let in.  Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied
  with the level of comfort in hell, and 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 says with a
  sneer, "So, how's it going down there in hell?"  Satan replies,
  "Hey, things are going great.  We've got air conditioning and
  flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this
  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?"
