Managers and engineers

A group of engineers is traveling by train with a group of managers. Every manager has bought a ticket, but the engineers have only one between them. Suddenly one of the engineers calls out, “Here comes the conductor!” All the engineers pile into the restroom. The conductor checks the managers’ tickets and notices the restroom door is locked. He knocks. “Ticket, please!” A ticket slips out from under the door. He punches it, slides it back, says thank you and goes on his way.

On the return trip the managers have only one ticket and, believe it or not, the engineers have none. Suddenly one of the managers cries, “Here comes the conductor!” The managers all run to hide in the restroom. The engineers walk a little more slowly to the other restroom. Before going inside, the last engineer bangs on the managers’ door and shouts, “Ticket, please!”…
