A computer salesman, a hardware engineer and a software developer
were riding in a car down the freeway. The software developer was
asleep in the back, having been up all night programming. Suddenly,
the car began to shudder, and the hardware guy (who was driving)
pulled over to the shoulder. The salesman got out and discovered that
they had a flat tire. "Time to buy a new car!" he said. "The new ones
are much faster and have more features, anyway." The hardware guy
said, "Let me look at it." He got out, inspected the tire, and returned,
saying, "I think we should rotate the tires." The software guy, who
was awake by now, then said, "Look, it's not doing it now. Let's take
her back out on the highway and see if it works."
