There was this man who was in a
horrible
accident, and was injured. But
the only permanent damage he suffered
was the amputation of both of his
ears. As a result of this
‚unusual‘ handicap, he was very
self-conscious
about his having no
ears.
Because of the accident, he received a large sum of money
from the
insurance company. It was always his dream to own his own
business, so
he
decided with all this money he had, he now had
the means to own a
business. So he went out and purchased a small,
but expanding computer
firm. But he realized that he had no
business knowledge at all, so he
decided that he would have to hire
someone to run the business. He
picked
out three top candidates, and
interviewed each of them. The first
interview went really well. He
really liked this guy. His last question
for this first candidate
was, ‚Do you notice anything unusual about
me?‘
The guy s
aid, ‚Now that you mention it, you have no ears.‘ The man
got
really upset and threw the guy out. The second interview went even
better
than the first. This candidate was much better than the
first. Again,
to
conclude the interview, the man asked the same
question again, ‚Do you
notice anything unusual about me?‘ This
guy also noticed, ‚Yes, you
have
no ears.‘ The man was really
upset again, and threw this second
candidate
out. Then he had
the third interview.. The third candidate was even
better
than
the second, the best out of all of them. Almost certain that he
wanted to hire this guy, the man once again asked, ‚Do you notice
anything
unusual about me?‘ The guy replied ‚Yeah, you’re wearing
contact
lenses.‘
Surprised, the man then asked, ‚Wow! That’s
quite perceptive of you!
How
could you tell?‘ The guy burst out
laughing and said, ‚Well, You
can’t
wear glasses if you d
on’t have any ears!‘
