Joke of the day – Job interview

January 8, 2014 | Newbloggycat

A businessman was interviewing applicants for the position of divisional manager. He devised a simple test to select the most suitable person for the job. He asked each applicant the question, “What is two and two?”

The first interviewee was a journalist. His answer was “Twenty-two.” The second was a social worker. She said, “I don’t know the answer but I’m glad we had time to discuss this important question.” The third applicant was an engineer. He pulled out a slide rule and showed the answer to be between 3.999 and 4.001.

The last applicant was an accountant. The business man asked him, “How much is two and two?” The accountant got up from his chair, went over to the door and closed it, then came back and sat down. He leaned across the desk and said in a low voice, “How much do you want it to be?” He got the job.

Joke of the day – The self-conscious businessman

The business was self-conscious because he had no ears. So, when he hired a manager, he asked each candidate, “Do you notice anything unusual about me?”

The first replied, “You have no ears.” He was shown the door. When the second candidate’s response was the same, he was also tossed out.

But the third guy had a different answer. “You’re wearing contact lenses,” he said. “How did you know?” the businessman gasped.

“Because people who have no ears have to wear contacts.”
