Applying for a Job 

Fred was applying for a job as a flagman/switch operator on the railroad. The chief engineer was conducting the interview. 

"What would you do if the Northern Express was heading north on Track 1 and the Southern Central was heading south on Track 1?" 

Fred quickly answered, "Well, I'd call my brother." 

The chief engineer just sat there for a second. "Why would you call your brother ?" "He's never seen a train wreck before."
