Lawyers and the Engineers One day 3 Lawyers each purchase a train ticket. Next in line were 3 Engineers who purchased only 1 train ticket. Confused, the lawyers ask the engineers "Why did you only purchase 1 ticket when there is 3 of you?" One of the engineers replied "Just watch and you will see!". As they boarded the train the 3 engineers headed straight for the bathroom where all 3 crowded in. Shortly after the train got going the conductor came thru asking for tickets. He then knocked on the bathroom door and asked for tickets please. 1 of the engineers opens the door a crack and hands out the ticket. Amazed at this the lawyers thought on the way back they would do the same. On the trip back the 3 lawyers went up and purchased only 1 train ticket but noticed that the engineers didn't purchase any. Confused again, the lawyers asked, "Why didn't you buy a ticket for the return trip?" One of the engineers replied, "Just watch and you will see!" As they boarded the train the 3 lawyers headed straight for the bathroom where all 3 crowded in. Shortly after the train got going one of the engineers knocked on the bathroom door and said, "Tickets, please!" |
