There are three engineers in a car; an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer and a Microsoft engineer. Suddenly the car just stops by the side of the road, and the three engineers look at each other wondering what could be wrong.
The electrical engineer suggests stripping down the electronics of the car and trying to trace where a fault might have occurred.
The chemical engineeer suggests that maybe the fuel is becoming emulsified and getting blocked somewhere.
Then, the Microsoft engineer, comes up with a suggestion, "Why don`t we close all the windows, get out, get back in, open the windows again, and maybe it`ll work !?"

A man piloting a hot air balloon discovers he has wandered off course and is hopelessly lost. He descends to a lower altitude and locates a man down on the ground. He lowers the balloon further and shouts “Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?”
The man below says: “Yes, you’re in a hot air balloon, about 30 feet above this field.”
“You must work in Information Technology,” says the balloonist.
“Yes I do,” replies the man. “And how did you know that?”
“Well,” says the balloonist, “what you told me is technically correct, but of no use to anyone.”
The man below says, “You must work in management.”
“I do,” replies the balloonist, “how did you know?”
“Well,” says the man, “you don’t know where you are, or where you’re going, but you expect my immediate help. You’re in the same position you were before we met, but now it’s my fault!”
