Tough question
Posted: Mon Apr 06, 2009 12:20 pm
A company was looking to hire someone for an important position,
so they interviewed dozens of applicants and narrowed their
search down to three people.
In an attempt to pick one of them, they decided to give them all
the same question to answer within 24 hours and the one with the
best answer would get the job.
The question was: A man and a woman are in bed, nude. The woman
is lying on her side with her back facing the man, and the man
is lying on his side facing the woman's back. What is the man's
name?
After the 24 hours was up, the three were brought in to give
their answers. The first one says "My answer is, there IS no
answer."
The second one says "My answer is, that there is no way to
determine the answer with the information we were given."
The third guy says, "I'm not exactly sure, but I have it
narrowed down to two names, it's either, Willie Turner or
Willie Nailer."
He got the job.
