A conductor on a passenger train is punching tickets.
He comes to a man that has no ticket, and when asked why says, "I am a trainman too. I have a pass, but being late, I left the house in a hurry and I forgot it."
The conductor takes out his watch and asks, "What time do you have?"
The man looks at his watch and says, "It's a quarter to four."
The conductor, checking his own watch notes this is the correct time.
Even so, the conductor puts the man off the train at the next station because the conductor knows the man is not a railroader.
How did he know?
