Test For Smart People

"Test For Smart People"

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. But don't scroll
down UNTIL you have answered the question!

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?

Did you say, 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?

Stumped?

Correct Answer:

The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator.
You just put him in there. This tests your memory.

Okay, 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 used by
crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it?

Stumped again?

Correct Answer:

You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not
been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the
animal conference. 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.

Like I did, you'll probably want to send this out to
frustrate all of your smart friends. But just the fact
that I sent it to you should make you feel good.
