The boss asks him, “What’s 2+2?”
“4” replies the accountant.
The boss tells him to get out. Sad, disappointed, and a little confused, the accountant slowly leaves the office.
The next candidate then enters and the boss asks him, “What’s 2+2?”.
“4” replies the accountant.
The boss tells him to get out.
Just as confused as the first accountant, the second one leaves thinking that if the boss is that stupid he doesn’t want to work there anyway.
The next candidate then enters and the boss asks him, “What’s 2+2?”.
The accountant replies, “Anything you want it to be.”
The boss says, “You’re hired.”
