A Manager of a retail clothing store is reviewing a potential employee’s application and notices that the man has never worked in retail before.
He says to the man, “For a man with no experience, you are certainly asking for a high wage. ”
“Well Sir,” the applicant replies, “the work is so much harder when you don’t know what you’re doing! “
The local police force was looking for recruits, so Dick went in to try for the job.
‘OK,’ the sergeant asked, ‘Dick, what is one and one?’.
‘Eleven,’ he replied. The sergeant thought to himself, that’s not what I meant, but he is right.
‘What two days of the week start with the letter T?’ ‘Today and tomorrow.’
The sergeant was again surprised that Dick supplied a correct answer that he has never thought of himself.
‘Now, Dick, listen carefully.
Who killed President Kennedy?’
Dick looked a little surprised himself, then thought really hard for a minute and finally admitted, ‘I don’t know.’ ‘Well, why don’t you go home and work on that one for a while?’
So Dick wandered over to the pub where his pals were waiting to hear the results of the interview.
Dick was exultant. ‘It went great! First day on the job and i’m already working on a murder case!’
Now do you still wonder why we are where we are?
