Qualified to be professional?

Posted in Trivia, Worthy of Note on March 3, 2009 by aurick

Go on, test yourself!

Do not pass Go. Go directly to the boardroom. You have lost your annual bonus, and there are no ‘Company Car’ cards left on the table.

The following quiz consists of four questions that tell you whether or not you are qualified to be a professional. Do not cheat. We will know. You have been warned. The questions are not that difficult. You just need to think like a professional.

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put the giraffe in, and close the door. This question tests whether or not you do simple things in a complicated way.

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Incorrect answer: Open the refrigerator, put the elephant in, and close the door.
Correct answer: Open the refrigerator, take the giraffe out, put the elephant in, and close the door. This question tests your foresight.

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. This tests if you are capable of comprehensive thinking.

Okay, if you did not do well in those last three questions, this may be your last chance to test your qualification to be a True Professional:

4. There is a river known for its vicious man-eating crocodiles. How do you cross it?

Correct answer: just swim across. All the crocodiles are attending the animal conference. This tests your reasoning ability.

If you answered all four questions correctly, you are a True Professional. Wealth and success await you. If you answered three out of four, there is still some hope for you. If you answered two out of four, consider a career as a hamburger flipper in a fast food joint. If you answered one out of four, try selling some of your organs, it’s the only way you will make any money. If you answered none correctly, just forget everything, there’s no point in going on.
