A blonde goes for a job interview in an office. The interviewer
starts with the basics. "So, Miss, can you tell us your age,
please?"
The
blonde counts carefully on her fingers for half a minute before
replying. "Um ... 22."
The
interviewer tries another straightforward one to break the ice.
"And can you tell us your height, please?"
The
young lady stands up and produces a measuring tape from her handbag.
She then traps one end under her foot and extends the tape to the
top of her head. She checks the measurement and announces, "Five
foot two!"
This
isn't looking good so the interviewer goes for the real basics;
something the she won't have to count, measure, or lookup. "Just
to confirm for our records, your name please?"
The
blonde bobs her head from side to side for about fifteen seconds,
mouthing something silently to herself, before replying, "Mandy!"
The
interviewer is completely baffled at this stage, so he asks, "What
were you doing when I asked you your name?"
"Oh,
that!" replies the blonde," I was just running through
that song, 'Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you...'." |
