i love this comment someone put
"Jim wanted a job as a signalman on the railways. At the job interview the inspector asked him this question: "What would you do if you saw 2 trains heading for each other on the SAME track? Jim said: "I would put all signals to danger" "What if they were going too fast?", asked the inspector. Jim said," I would switch the points for one of the trains." "What if the lever broke?", asked the inspector. "Then I'd dash down the signal box steps waving a red flag", said Jim. "What if it blew away in the wind?' asked the inspector. "Then I'd run back into signal box & phone the next signal box." "What if the phone was engaged?" "Well.....in that case," persevered Jim, " I'd rush down out of the box & use the public emergency phone at the level crossing." "What would you do if THAT was vandalized?" "Oh well, then I'd run into the village & get my Uncle Harry." This puzzled the Inspector, so he asked, "Why would you do that?" "Because he's never seen a train crash!!" |
