Akpos is applying for a job as a signalman for the local railroad and is told to meet the inspector at the signal box. The inspector decides to give Akpos a pop quiz, asking: What would you do if you realized that two trains were heading towards each other on the same track? Akpos says: I would switch one train to another track. What if the lever broke? asks the inspector. Then Id run down to the tracks and use the manual lever down there, answers Akpos. What if that had been struck by lightning? challenges the inspector. Then, Akpos continued, Id run back up here and use the phone to call the next signal box. What if the phone was busy? In that case, Akpos argued, Id run to the street level and use the public phone near the station. What if that had been vandalized? Oh well, said Akpos, in that case I would run into town and get my Brother Ofego. This puzzled the inspector, so he asked, Why would you do that? Because hes never seen a train crash.
