The Fun Gun...

Ram ( hey... no offences meant there ..ok..) applied for an engineering position at an Indian MNC firm based in Bangalore.

An American applied for the same job and both applicants having the same qualifications were asked to take a test by the Department manager. Upon completion of the test both men only missed one of the questions.

The manager went to Ram and said.

Manager: "Thank you for your interest, but we've decided to give the American the job"

Ram: "And why would you be doing that? We both got nine questions correct. This being India and me being Indian ,I should get the job!"

Manager: "We have made our decisions not on the correct answers, but on the question you missed."

Ram: "And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?"

Manager: "Simple, the American put down on question #5, "I don't know.", You put down "Neither do I."
