Are your engineers really what they seem?

Or are they something other than human? Team 116 has just discovered the truth about Dave Lavery:




So, next time you see one of your engineers, look a little closer, they may not be what you think they are...

Is this one of those wacky Apple/Switch commercials?

I don't know all the details, but I'm already afraid...

In good working order? Er... well... I don't know if I can answer that question without getting into trouble.

Nope, this is just something from the shadowy corners of my mind. But you may want to still be afraid.

It's sad that not all teams can afford the top of the line Engineerbots like Dave. However, with careful budgeting and shopping around, any team can obtain one.

You can save a lot by buying one of the older models on e-bay. They usually go for about $989.00 But they do run on hamster power, so there is the additional cost of replacing the hamster:

EngineerBot1

Or you could go for one flawed models. Sure, it may have a extra eye or something, but hey, aren't three eyes better than one anyhow? These go for $1,000 to $1,350 on e-bay:

EngineerBot2

Well, good luck shopping!

Hamster power?

That's odd I could have sworn from the fascinating discussion we had a couple of months ago about the different applications and exploration of Boyle's law that these particular engineer units were powered by methane gas.

Did you particular model come with his own can of beans or did you have to purchase that separately?

You're thinking of the Davebot prototype, which came out sometime in the late 70s or early 80s I believe. The 2002 Davebot unit, clearly a superior machine, (hey, I have to get out of trouble somehow, flattery usually works!) is powered by Krispy Kreme Donuts. You can substitute other donuts, such as Dunkin Donuts, but it's kind of like putting regular gas in you car rather than premium.

Dunkin donuts!!! Gasp!

Missinformation I am shocked at your candor at suggesting such sacrilige!

It must be Krispy Kreme or nothing at all!

Ahhhhh.....Krispy Kreme!

me/ drools all over carpet. If your unit runs on Krispy Kreme, That's my kind of engineer baby! Can I borrow him sometime?


Drool, drool, drool.........

Ewww... now there's a puddle of drool in here, does anyone have a mop?

Er... I am not allowed to lend out any more engineerbots. The last one I lent out was never seen again. . Ralph? Ralph? Where are you Ralph? Please come back, team 116 misses you... Sigh.

However, if you attend any of the regionals our Davebot goes to, I'm sure you will find him surrounded by Krispy Kremes. All of the FIRSTers know it's the best way to keep the Davebots in top functioning form.
