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.
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?
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.
This tests your memory.
OK, 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 inhabited by crocodiles. How
do you manage it?
Correct Answer:
You swim across. All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting. 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. Anderson Consulting says this conclusively
disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four
year old.
Send this out to frustrate all of your smart friends.
