A NOVEL APPROACH TO SAVING MONEY
Business & Work Jokes
Three engineers and three accountants are traveling by train to a
conference. At the station, the three accountants each buy tickets
and watch as the three engineers buy only a single ticket.
"How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asks an
accountant.
"Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer.
They all board the train. The accountants take their respective seats
but all three engineers cram into a restroom and close the door behind
them. Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around
collecting tickets. He knocks on the restroom door and says, "Ticket,
please."
The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in
hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.
The accountants saw this and agreed it was quite a clever idea. So
after the conference, the accountants decide to copy the engineers on
the return trip and save some money (being clever with money, and all
that). When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for the
return trip. To their astonishment, the engineers don't buy a ticket
at all.
"How are you going to travel without a ticket?" says one perplexed
accountant.
"Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer.
When they board the train the three accountants cram into a restroom
and the three engineers cram into another one nearby. The train
departs. Shortly afterward, one of the engineers leaves his restroom
and walks over to the restroom where the accountants are hiding. He
knocks on the door and says, Ticket, please."
