SMAN Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Three doctors and three nurses are traveling by train to a conference. At the station the three doctors each buys a ticket and watch as the three nurses buy only a single ticket. "How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asked one doctor. "Watch and you will see," answered a nurse. They all board the train and the doctors all take their respective seats but all three nurses 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 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 doctors saw this and agreed that it was clever idea. So after the conference the doctors decide to copy the nurses 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 nurses don't buy a ticket at all. "How are you going to travel without a ticket?" asks one perplexed doctor. "Watch and you'll see", answered a nurse. When they board the train the three doctors cram themselves into a restroom and the three nurses into another one nearby. The train departs. Shortly afterward one of the nurses leaves his restroom and walks over to the restroom where the doctors are hiding. He knocks on the door and says "Ticket please".
