I can't wait to have my boss take me out to lunch every day all week and buy me some flowers!
RE: Happy Engineers Week
Ussuri, well if it's only for happy engineers it would explain why I didnt' hear of it directly.
So Saint Paddy is the Patron Saint of Engineers. I wish I'd considered this when I gave up booze for lent!

RE: Happy Engineers Week
Being from across the pond, you should know that Saint Patrick's day is a given exception for those who give up alcohol for lent.

Not that that's going to stop all the green beer and whatnot on March 17 anyway.

Easter = first Sunday after first full moon after spring equinox. Lent = 40 days before. It would have to be a very late Easter to get March 17 outside of that envelope.
RE: Happy Engineers Week
Meanwhile, I keep parsing the title of this thread to mean "a week dedicated to happy engineers".

Yes, St. Patricks day falls in Holy week this year, which shortens Holy week by one day.

In my second year, my (Uni) college added "and Medicine" to its name. Better still, the medicine bit was just up the road from our flat. And there were nurses, hence my flatmate's politically incorrect observation at the time:
"There are two certainties in life: death and nurses."

RE: Happy Engineers Week
Just realized that's incredibly sexist and inappropriate, imagine that from an Engineer, sorry.
I remember the Engineering ball in my first year, Gina G was the entertainment, ooh ahh just a little bit, I'll say so. The EFS (Engineering Faculty Society) went bankrupt shortly after, they spent all their money on a new computer (supposedly). Tell me that isn't stereotypical for a bunch of Engineering Geeks!

Engineering = Nerdy Men
Nurses =Picky Women
Engineer*Open bar = better social skills for engineers (less nerdy)
Nurses*Open Bar = Ability to hang around Engineers (less picky)
Open bar *(Engineers +Nurses)= E-Ball = good party
And I had to make a stupid equation out of this...and fall in the stereotype...
