How Everyone Sees Mechanical Engineers

In the corporate jungle, mechanical engineers are the default problem solvers—the ones everyone assumes can fix literally anything with moving parts. The conversation perfectly captures that moment when management doesn't even bother to specify which type of engineer they need anymore. "Normal engineer" = mechanical engineer, apparently! It's like being the household's designated spider killer, except instead of spiders, it's broken HVAC systems, jammed printers, and that weird noise coming from the conference room ceiling. Mechanical engineers reading this are nodding while simultaneously fixing someone's chair with a paperclip.
