The Three Engineers

Three engineers were offered to build a bridge that would link a remote island to a highly urbanized city. The people in that island eagerly want to have a bridge that would cross them to the city although it is miles apart and the ocean is really too deep and that they will be given whatever the company has to give. So the three engineers spoke to each other:


Engineer 1: Let's face it...the island is too far from the city and the ocean is too deep for us to work, besides, we don't know the quality of materials that the company will give us! It will all cost to nothing! It is only a waste of time! We cannot do it...

Connecting people...connecting lives...

Engineer 2: Let's think first...the island is too far from the city. It must be beautiful and wonderful place to live and the ocean must be great to swim at. Depending upon the company, they must give us high quality of materials! We must take profit in that island! But time is precious, we may able to do it or not...


Engineer 3: Let's work on it! The island may be too far from the city and the ocean maybe too deep for us to work, but we must have faith to the company to give us the best materials to work for! It is for the people's benefit! We cannot stand here for a long time! We can do it!


Ponder this: Who among these three engineers would you choose to build the bridge? The one who is realistic? idealistic? or the optimistic? Are you also one of those engineers? Who then are you from these three?
