AME/AMT Ingenuity
Three pilots and three AME/AMTs
were traveling by train to a conference. At the station the three pilots each
bought tickets and watched as the three AME/AMTs bought only a single ticket.
"How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?" asked a pilot. "Watch
and you'll see" answered an AME/AMT.
They all boarded the train. The pilots took their respective seats but all three
AME/AMTs crammed into a restroom and closed the door behind them. Shortly after
the train departed, the conductor came around, collecting tickets. He knocked on
the restroom door and said, "Tickets please." The door opened a crack and a
single arm emerged with a ticket in hand. The conductor took it and moved on.
The pilots saw this and agreed it was quite a clever idea. So after the
conference, the pilots (recognizing the AME/AMT's superior intellect) decided to
copy them on the return trip and save some money. When they got to the station,
they bought a single ticket for the return trip. To their astonishment, the AME/AMTs
didn't buy a ticket at all. "How are you going to travel without a ticket?"
asked a perplexed pilot. "Watch and you'll see" answered an AME/AMT. When they
boarded the train the three pilots crammed into a restroom and the three AME/AMTs
crammed into another one nearby. The train departed. Shortly afterward one of
the AME/AMTs left his washroom and walked over to the restroom where the three
pilots were hiding. He knocked on the door and said, "Tickets please."
