40-paise Jokes

On leaving his office and reaching the tram stop, a Sardar found that the tram bound for his home had just started moving. The Sardar, in his anxiety to get home fast, ran after the tram; in course of time, it was found that the race between the speeding and slowing tram and the Sardar ended with the Sardar reaching home, chasing the tram.
Gleefully, the Sardar exclaimed to his wife upon entering home that he has saved up 40-paise that day chasing the home-bound tram! The Sardarnee, however, was not amused, but quite upset, and said, "After all you are only a Sardar - instead of chasing the tram, if only you had chased a taxi, you could have saved ten rupees instead of a mere 40-paise."
