An engineer dies and goes to hell. Soon, he gets dissatisfied with the place, and starts making improvements. After a while, they've got airconditioning, flush toilets and escalator, and the engineer becomes pretty popular.
One day, God calls up Satan and asks, "So, how's it going down there?"
Satan replies, "Great. We've got air-conditioning, flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer will come up with next."
God replies, "You've got an engineer?" That's a mistake – he should never have got there; send him up here."
Says Satan, "No way! I like having an engineer on the staff, I'm keeping him."
God says, "Send him here or I'll sue."
To which Satan laughs, "And just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?"
