I had a very long meeting today with my supervisor and a rather eminent paediatric ICU specialist.
I presented some work which I hope will be published in a good journal (the Lancet is our first choice) soon.
We had a very interesting conversation. 

At the end, she asked me what my specialism was.  Was I a paediatrician?  An ED doctor?
Um, no, I'm an engineer.  A very very flattered engineer.

WIN.
