Guest guest Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 This is a test for Smart People.....after much consideration, I have determined that you qualify. The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a professional. Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT that difficult. But don't scroll down UNTIL you have answered the question! 1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator? The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way. 2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator? Did you say, open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the refrigerator? Wrong Answer. Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your previous actions. 3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend.... except one. Which animal does not attend? Correct Answer: The elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You just put him in there. This tests your memory. Okay, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your true abilities:4. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it? Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the animal conference. This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes. According to Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all questions wrong, but many preschoolers got several correct answers. AndersonConsulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four-year-old. PS: Just the fact that I sent it to you should make you feel good.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Dear Michael, Your story reminds me of the scientist, who carried out an experiment with a cocroach. He pulled out its first leg and commanded "Now walk". The cocroach walked. Now he pulled out its second leg, and commanded "Now Walk". The cocroach walked. Now he pulled out its third leg and commanded "Now walk" . . . . Left with one leg only, the crocoach was unable to walk. The scientist wrote in his journel : "Left with only one leg, the cocroach lost its ability to hear my commands !!".Michael Bindel <michael.bindel wrote: This is a test for Smart People.....after much consideration, I have determined that you qualify.
