Those that build 'em over here are labelled as Aeronautical engineers. Similarly those that build Bridges and roads are Civil engineers.

For a fair while those that empty the bedpans used to study the mechanics of the 'job' in house, they were labelled nurses.
Now they are nurses aids. The real nurses in this fair country go to uni for quite a while to learn fluid hydraulics etc, which was supposed to help them to empty bed pans back in the ward.

But wait there is more, now there is a revolt and it has been decided that real nurses are hopeless when they return from the house of scholarship but instead should learn the trade 'on the job'.

schematics - mechanics - word definitions etc. maybe this little ditty which came across my desk today will help all to understand.

It goes like this and the "to-and-froms" here may know what it is all about.

Old mate buys a teddy bear for a xmas gift for ten bucks.

He calls it Mohammed.

He decides that he doesn't like it so he cashes it in on Ebay for $30.

Now the poor fella in totally confused, did he make a prophet or not?
