The CAD Software Addiction Progression

The existential crisis of an inductor in an LC circuit. While capacitors get all the glory for storing electric charge, inductors are stuck with the thankless job of fighting current changes. That coil is literally designed to create a magnetic field that opposes any change in current flow—it's basically the electrical component equivalent of that one friend who resists all plans. "Current changes forever" is just rubbing salt in the wound. No wonder it's making sad noises... probably a low-frequency hum of disappointment.

The mathematical naivety is just... *exhales cigarette smoke*... painful. Engineering students thinking they're escaping math is like believing you can avoid water by jumping into the ocean. Differential equations, vector calculus, and numerical methods will find you. They always do. The difference? Physicists derive the equations, engineers just solve them... repeatedly... with boundary conditions from hell. Sweet summer children.

The eternal physics struggle! The right-hand rule is what happens when scientists decided to use our appendages as cosmic directional guides. Option A or B? Physicists everywhere are sweating bullets trying to remember which way their fingers should point to determine magnetic fields and cross products. The universe doesn't care about our arbitrary hand gestures, but somehow we've built entire electromagnetic theories around which way our thumbs wiggle! Next time your phone's compass works, thank some physicist who correctly contorted their hand like they were casting a wizard spell. 🧙‍♂️⚡

When Quality Control asks for your precise measurements and you've been using the most sophisticated instrument known to science: your eyeballs! 👁️👁️ Engineers and scientists everywhere know that sweet panic when someone questions your methodology and all you've got is the "calibrated optical assessment technique" (fancy talk for "I guessed by looking at it"). Precision? Who needs decimal points when you've got CONFIDENCE! The true mark of a mad scientist isn't the lab coat—it's the ability to defend your eyeball-based measurements with a straight face!

The eternal engineering hierarchy revealed! Mechanical engineers picture themselves as Greek gods with abs you could bounce quarters off, while viewing electrical engineers as nervous nerds one circuit away from electrocution. And software "engineers"? Just lazy coders with fuzzy socks and a questionable claim to the engineering title! The tribal warfare continues in university departments worldwide - where your choice of calculator brand might determine your social standing. Real engineers build things you can kick when they break down!

The joke here is that Bob claims to be 28 years old while clearly looking like he's in his 60s or 70s! Engineering has aged him like fine milk left in the desert. Every deadline, every "minor change" from clients, every code that worked yesterday but mysteriously fails today has transformed our poor Bob from a fresh-faced graduate into the human embodiment of stress. His smile hides the trauma of a thousand CAD crashes and the haunting memory of forgetting to save before a power outage. Engineering: flexible as a brick and stress-free as juggling nitroglycerin!
