The Train 🍭🍬🍫❓

A woman who rented a second story apartment beside a railway line complained to her landlord for months about the rattling and shaking the trains caused as they passed. On the phone she continuously asked for an apartment further from the line but the landlord always said it can’t be that bad.

One day she rang him again and said l want you to come to my apartment and see for yourself how bad it is. So the landlord arrived at her apartment and she said there’s a train due in 3 minutes, so you’ll see what l mean. It’s worse when l’m trying to sleep so why don’t you lie on the bed beside me and you’ll experience what l’m talking about?

So the landlord lays on the bed beside her. A minute later her husband walked into the bedroom and said “what’s going on here?” The landlord, looking embarrassed, said “you won’t believe this, but we’re waiting for a train.”

In that version, the woman called the apartment manager to complain about the noise & shaking every time a train went by, which was quite often.
When the manager came to her door, she invited him in and suggested that he wait in the closet for the next train to come by.
Then the husband came home, opened the closet, and was shocked to see the manager inside.
"What the hell are you doing in my closet?" the husband shouted.
The manager replied, "I'm waiting for a train."
