Sounds like he works on public transportation but he really works in a restaurant.

Bus Boy

Why this works

This riddle plays on the double meaning of the word "bus." In public transportation, a "bus" refers to a vehicle that transports people, while in a restaurant context, a "busboy" (or busser) is someone who clears tables and assists servers. The clever twist lies in the expectation that "bus" relates to transportation, leading to the humorous realization that the answer is actually about restaurant work!

Common Wrong Answers

“Bus Driver”

A bus driver operates public transportation vehicles and does not typically work in a restaurant.

“Chef”

A chef is responsible for cooking meals in a restaurant, but the riddle specifically refers to someone who has a role related to bus transportation.

“Waiter”

While a waiter also works in a restaurant, the term does not have the transportation connotation that 'bus boy' does.
