Three lawyers and three engineers were travelling by train to a conference.

At the station, each lawyer bought a ticket whereas the engineers bought

only one ticket between them.

‘

How are you going to travel on a single ticket?’ asked a lawyer.

‘

Wait and watch,’ answered one of the engineers.

When they boarded the train, the lawyers took their seats, but the thre e

engineers crammed into a toilet and closed the door behind them. Shortly

after the train started, the ticket collector arrived. He knocked on the toilet

door and asked, ‘Ticket please.’

The door opened just a crack and a single

arm emerged with a ticket in hand. The ticket collector took it and moved

on.

Seeing this, the lawyers decided to the same thing on the return trip.

So when they got to the station, they bought only one ticket. To their

astonishment, the engineers didn't buy any.

‘How are you going to travel

without a ticket?’ asked one of the perplexed lawyers.

‘Wait and watch,’ answered an engineer.

In the train, the three engineers crammed into a toilet and the three lawyers

into another nearby. Soon after the train started, one of the engineers got out

of the toilet and walked to one where the lawyers were hiding.

He knocked on the door and said, ‘Ticket, please.’

foreign tourist hired a guide to take him around Delhi and Agra. At the

Red Fort at Delhi, he admired the architecture and asked how many years it

took to build.

.Twenty years,. replied the guide.

.You Indians are a lazy lot,. the tourist said. .In my country, this could have

been built in five..

At Agra he admired the Taj.s beauty and asked how many years it took to

build.

.Only ten years,. said the guide.

The tourist retorted: .You Indians are slow! We can construct such buildings

in two-and-a-half..

In this fashion the tourist claimed that every building he admired could have

been built in his country in quarter the time. Finally, when they reached the

Qutab Minar, and the tourist asked what it was, the guide replied: .I don.t

know. It wasn.t there yesterday evening..
