Default Joke: Accountants vs. Engineers

Three engineers and three accountants were due to take a train to a seminar to represent their company out of town. At the train station, the accountants bought three train tickets and the engineers bought one ticket. One of the accountants asked "How are all three of you going to ride on this train with one ticket?" One of the engineers replied "Watch and see." When the conductor came around to collect tickets, the three engineers all crammed into a bathroom. The conductor knocked on the bathroom door "Tickets." The door opened slightly, a hand came out, and handed the conductor a ticket. The accountants thought this was pretty clever and decided to try it on the return trip. When they got to the train station, the accountants bought one ticket and the engineers bought none. One of the accountants asked "How are you going to ride this train with no tickets?" One of the engineers replied "Watch and see." When the conductor came around to collect tickets, the accountants crammed into one bathroom and the engineers crammed into another bathroom. Then one of the engineers left his bathroom, walked over to the accountants bathroom, knocked on the door, and said "Tickets."

Being an engineer, I could see that punchline coming from "... and the engineers bought none." We're a strange breed.

Accountants would not hand over that ticket without proper ID.

A doctor a lawyer and an engineer were waiting to tee off at their local golf club. but were held up by a group of guys who were being very slow and continually mis- hitting the ball. After waiting for about half an hour, and getting more and more angry. They went to the clubhouse where they complained to an official who explained that the group were a bunch of people from the local blind institute, they didn't come very often, and yes it did take them rather a long time to get round the course. The official said he'd go and ask the group to stand aside if they wished.

The doctor was horrified "Good lord no" he said " I feel awful now, I'll wait as long as it takes and I shall buy each of them a drink in the clubhouse afterwards."

The lawyer said " Yes, I feel terrible too and shall buy each of them a drink as well"

The engineer said "Why can't they play in the dark?"

An engineering student comes back to his dorm, slams a new bicycle on the floor, and flops down at his computer. His roommate (also an engineer) asks him, "Where did you get the bike?" The engineering student responds, "Lemme tell you what happened."

"I was walking through the quad and this beautiful blonde women carrying a bicycle runs up to me, throws the bike to the ground, tears off all her clothes, and says, 'Take what you want.'"

The roommate responds, "Good choice ... the clothes probably wouldn't have fit you anyway."
