(Another one to cross my desk...)

A test for Smart People... I have determined that you qualify.

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 scroll down UNTIL 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 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 disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four-year-old.

Send this out to frustrate all of your smart friends.

Daniel - Good Timing! I just spent 2 hours filling out one of those "Personality Tests" as part of a job interviewing process. Whew!!!

1. There was no mention of the actual age or size of the giraffe and elephant. Only an idiot would even consider a full grown of either of the above to fit into a refridgerator.
I would assume they were in the fetal stage and both would fit. Or I would inquire as to whether it was one of those giant commercial refridgerators. As Ernie would say: "Need more information"!

2. See above.

3. The Elephant & Giraffe fetuses because they are in the Fridge.

4. I would clean out the Fridge, and slide it into the river and float it across with me riding on top.

Silly people. Overanalyzing.

Open the door. Put the animal in. I got 3 1/2 out of 4. I did jump in and swim, but not because I remembered that the crocs were at the meeting. I am happy to announce that I have the brain of a 3 1/2 year old! ;-)
