It's not "good", it's "good enough" - Our team's slogan when we screw up but it still works.

"If we win, it's cause we have a good robot. If we lose, it's the driver's fault." (I was the driver when we came up with that).

the unoffical list of things said around our robotics rooms

-- You want me to get INCENTIVE? --
-- If it aint light, put it on the sandwich diet --
-- some peices of metal went to church, this sunday --
-- if it aint related to eucher, it aint canadian --

yeah i know they are really lame, but u had to be there, and the incentive comment, yeah those of u who watched the canadian regional might understand it.

note: nylon rope cannot be joined using solder, though i can be joined by holding a match underneath it, but sadly it will not return to its original strength.

Safety is no accident!

Re: Engineering slogans
 

From a sign in my office and in those of engineers I know:

"Lack of planning on your part does not consitute an emergency on my part" (a personal favorite)

"Never question the judgment of an engineer" (a bit of tongue-in-cheek humor)

"Of course I don't look busy. I did it right the first time."

and my engineer husband's reply anytime I say something is broken: "did you hit it with a hammer yet?"

Maybe not "engineering" related, but all things appreciated by engineers.

I heard a potential quote of the day tonight at our meeting from our Head Mentor of electrical/programming.

"I hate programs that think they know more than I do."

Re: Engineering slogans
 

Some of my favorites;

The program is never wrong.
I've cut it off three times and it's still too short.
If all else fails, read the instructions.

Re: Engineering slogans
 

I know its not quite an engineering slogan, but sometimes our freshmen can be quite immature. I heard a good quote and have had to use it more than I like.

"Try to act your age, not your shoe size."

Those are hilarious. But your yin-yang animation mesmerized me for a minute. You might want to do something about that. :yikes:
