“How can the three of you travel on one ticket?” asked a lawyer.
“Watch and you’ll see,” answered an engineer.
Aboard the train the lawyers took their respective seats while all three engineers crammed into the restroom and squeezed the door behind them.
When the conductor comes around collecting tickets, he knocks on the restroom door and says, “Ticket, please!” The door opens a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor took it and moved on.
The lawyers were impressed with that clever idea. On the way home from the conference, they decided to copy the engineers’ technique. At the station, they bought a single ticket for their return trip. But to their astonishment, the engineers didn't bought a ticket at all!
“How in the hell are you going to pull this off?” asked a lawyer.
“Watch and you’ll see,” answered an engineer.
They board the train. The three lawyers crammed into one restroom and the three engineers went into the other restroom.
Shortly after the train departed, one of the engineers stepped out of their restroom and knocked on the other restroom door. “Ticket, please!”
