Three engineers and three accountants are travelling 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 you going to travel with only one ticket?" asks an accountant.
"Watch and you'll see," answers one of the engineers.
They all board the train, and the accountants take their seats, while the three engineers cram into a toilet and close the door behind them.
Shortly after the train departs, the conductor comes around to collect tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and says, "Ticket, please." The door opens just a crack, and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes the ticket and moves on.
The accountants are impressed by this clever trick. On the way back from the conference, they decide to try the same tactic and save some money. 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?" asks one of the accountants.
"Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer.
They all board the train. The three accountants cram into one toilet , and the three engineers cram into another toilet nearby.
Shortly after the train departs, one of the engineers leaves his toilet, walks over to the toilet where the accountants are hiding, knocks on the door, and says, "Ticket, please.."
