Carrie Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 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 scrolldownUNTIL 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? 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 inhabited by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it? Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been listening? 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcePrincessKRS Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 (edited) I'd heard it before so I got the first 2 right because I remembered. I got number 3 wrong because I couldn't remember and I got number 4 right all on my own but not for the right reason (I didn't have a reason, actually, I figured just take the risk!). lol Edited September 30, 2004 by IcePrincessKRS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyyoimjohnny Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Heh... I got the 3rd right. For the giraffe, I looked at the answer right off. Then the next one I thought, "Well, this must be a more complicated answer... I must have to go butt first," oop. I guess not. Then the 3rd one I'm like, "why would an animal not be able to come? Is it me? Cuz Lions don't invite people? ... WAIT! THE ELEPHANT IS IN THE REFRIGERATOR! Wait, the giraffe wounldn't--- no, I took him out!" Then the fourth, the question was, "4. There is a river you must cross but it is inhabited by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it?" And I'm like, "You can't manage a river full of crocodiles! It's not like they could understand me trying to manage them!" Then I saw the answer and felt silly. LOL this thing was awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmerf Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 I got three right. It seems kind of arbitrary... How do you know you're putting the elephant into the same refrigerator? Meh. It reminds me of elephant jokes: how do you get four elephants in a volkswagen? Two in the front, two in the back. How do you know if there's an elephant in your fridge? Footprints in the peanut butter. How do you know there's two elephants in your fridge? You can't reach the mayo. How do you know there's three elephants in your fridge? You can't quite shut the door. How do you know there's four elephants in your fridge? There's a volkswagen parked in your driveway. Bada-bing! Cheers, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
