Get me off this train

One day a man took the train from Paris to Frankfurt. When he got on the train, he said to the ticket man:

“Sir, I really need you to do me a favor. I have to get off this train in Mannheim, but I’m very tired, and it is for sure that I will fall asleep. So what I want you to do is wake me up in Mannheim, because I have to close a business deal there.

“This is very important to me, and I will give you 100 euro for the favor. But I warn you, sometimes when people wake me up, I get really violent, but no matter what I do or say, you have to get me out off this train in Mannheim. Is that clear?”

The ticket man agreed and took the 100 euro. Later, just as the man had predicted, he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he realized that he was in Frankfurt. He was so mad at the ticket man that he ran over and started yelling at him.

“Are you stupid or something??? I paid you 100 euro so that you wuold wake me up in Mannheim, but you didn’t! I want my money back!”

While the man was yelling at the ticket guy, two other men that were also in the train were watching them. One turned to the other and said:

“Look at this guy! He is really mad!”

To which the other man replied:

“Yeah! He’s almost as mad as the guy that the ticket man made get off the train in Mannheim.”
