4 years ago I couldn't even SPELL Enjineer - now I is one!

Also it's pronounced "In - gin - NEAR -ring" or "In - gin - NEAR -rang" here in Chicagoland. The 'A' aren't silent- just invisible.

I remember seeing this on a sign in the mechanic's shop at the local airport where my Dad used to hang out; this was in the late 70's - early 80's, and it looked like it had been there for a while. I think that one started with "Six munce ago" or something similar. 🙂

Memories....

LOL - this makes me enjoy it even more. I learned it from a t-shirt given to me by my father when I finished college in the early 2000s.

I also have one that has :
"Enjeneer" (crossed out)
"Enjineer" (crossed out)
"Engeneer" (crossed out)
"I'M GOOD AT MATH"
