The Ears Have it!!
There was this man who was in a horrible accident,
and was injured. But the only permanent damage he
suffered was the amputation of both of his ears. As a
result of this "unusual" handicap, he was very
self-conscious about his having no ears.
Because of the accident, he received a large sum of
money from the insurance company. It was always his
dream to own his own business, so he decided with all
this money he had, he now had the means to own a
business. So he went out and purchased a small, but
expanding computer firm. But he realized that he had no
business knowledge at all, so he decided that he would
have to hire someone to run the business.
He picked out three top candidates, and interviewed
each of them. The first interview went really well. He
really liked this guy. His last question for this first
candidate was "Do you notice anything unusual about me?"
The guy said, "Now that you mention it, you have no
ears." The man got really upset and threw the guy out.
The second interview went even better than the first.
This candidate was much better than the first. Again, to
conclude the interview, the man asked the same question
again, "Do you notice anything unusual about me?" The
guy also noticed, "Yes, you have no ears." The man was
really upset again, and threw this second candidate out.
Then he had the third interview. The third candidate
was even better than the second, the best out of all of
them. Almost certain that he wanted to hire this guy,
the man once again asked, "Do you notice anything
unusual about me?" The guy replied "Yeah, you're wearing
contact lenses." Surprised, the man then asked, "Wow!
That's quite perceptive of you! How could you tell?" The
guy burst out laughing and said, "You can't wear glasses
if you don't have any ears!"
