Danik XP Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Irish Engineer Young man Murphy applied for an engineering position at an Irish firm based in Dublin. An American applied for the same job and both applicants having the same qualifications were asked to take a test by the department manager. Upon completion of the test, the manager went to Murphy and said, "Thank you for your interest, but we've decided to give the American the job." Murphy asked, "And why would you be doing that? We both got nine questions correct. This being Ireland, and me being Irish, I should get the job!" The manager said, "We have made our decision, not on the correct answers, but rather on the question that you missed." Murphy asked, "And how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?" The manager replied, "Simple. The American put down on question #5, 'I don't know.' You put down, 'Neither do I.'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessterw Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Good one. I think it could be any two countries, just happens it's America and Ireland in this telling. I can't say that I think any Irish would be offended anyhow (I'm not, though I'm probably conflicted since I'm both). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
