There are 4 questions. Don’t miss one. Thanks to reader SKT who sent this to me.
1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
Stop and think about it and decide on your answer before you scroll down.
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 used 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 proves the theory that most professionals do not have the brains of a four-year-old.
Send this out to frustrate all of your smart friends.
I posted it for my smart readers :-). Have a wonderful day.

adie Maybe if we let the smart 4 year olds to run the country wouldn't be a bad choice eh? How much worst can they do, right?
Hahahaha.
walla The consulting firm (spelt Andersen, actually, and subsequently renamed Accenture which stands for accent on the future) was correct. Their consultants don't have the brains of four-year-old's. Unless one says their base-level entry qualification of a minimum second upper honours (or high GPAs) from ivy leagues can be achieved by infants.
Believe me, i was a global authority on all the multinational consulting firms including those which were later absorbed into others.
One of the things one would have liked to have seen developed by our megabillion education system is a localized hybrid combining the best of all the top consulting firms' training programmes - and then applying it on a scalable dimension across the entire human resource supply chain - from preschool up to postgraduate inclusive of new manager up to director/partner.
If we can see focus, technique, discipline, customer-orientation and other work attributes in mnc-trained locals, why not imbibe the best that can be customized as a new local work culture which can also insert professionalism into the way people think and interact generally?
But i expect that would be too much for the goons running the local show so how to improve the nation?
