The Engineers and the Scientists
A group of scientists and engineers were going to a convention on a
train. Each of the scientists had his or her own ticket. The scientists
were snickering and scoffing at the engineers who had only ONE TICKET
for the entire group. Suddenly one of the engineers shouted "Conductor
Coming!"
At this point ALL the engineers crowded into one of the restrooms. The
conductor came through the car calling "Ticket Please" at which point
each scientist handed over their ticket. As the conductor passed the
restroom he knocked on the door and announced "Ticket Please" ONE
TICKET was slid under the door. The conductor passed on to the next car
and all the engineers came out of the restroom and took a seat on the
train. The scientists looked at each other feeling "Really Stupid"
On the return trip, the scientist group bought ONE TICKET and sat down
smugly in the car. They were aghast to learn that the engineers had NO
TICKET at all. Soon the engineer look out shouted, "Conductor coming!".
All the scientists ran to one restroom and the engineers to the other
restroom. Quickly one engineer left his restroom, knocked on the
scientists' door and called "TICKET PLEASE!"
