Subject: Engineering vs Math Majors
Some humor to lighten the day.
> Engineering vs Math Majors
>
> A math and engineering convention was being held. On the train to
> the convention, there were both math majors and engineering majors.
> Each of the math majors had his/her own train ticket. But the
> engineers had only ONE ticket for all of them.
>
> The math majors started laughing and snickering. The engineers
> ignored the laughter. Then, one of the engineers said, "Here comes
> the conductor". All of the engineers piled into the bathroom. The
> math majors were puzzled. The conductor came aboard and collected
> tickets from all the math majors. He went to the bathroom, knocked
> on the door, and said "Ticket please". An engineer stuck their only
> ticket under the door. The conductor took the ticket and left. A
> few minutes later, the engineers emerged from the bathroom. The math
> majors felt really stupid.
>
> On the way back from the convention, the group of math majors had ONE
> ticket for their group. They started snickering at the engineers,
> who had NO tickets amongst them. When the engineer lookout shouted
> "Conductor coming!", all the engineers again piled into a bathroom.
> All of the math majors went into another bathroom. Then, before the
> conductor came on board, one of the engineers left the bathroom,
> knocked on the other bathroom, and said "Ticket please."
