Jennifer, a manager at a local Lidl store, had the task of hiring
someone to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of CVs she
found four people who were equally qualified. Jennifer decided to call
the four in and ask them only one question. Their answer would
determine which of them would get the job.*The day came and as the
four sat around the conference room table, Jennifer asked,
'What is the fastest thing you know of?
'The first man replied, 'A THOUGHT.' It just pops into your head.
There's no warning.
'That's very good!' replied Jennifer. 'And, now you sir?', she asked
the second man.
'Hmmm...let me see 'A blink! It comes and goes and you don't know
that it ever happened. A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of.
''Excellent!' said Jennifer. 'The blink of an eye, that's a very
popular cliché for speed.
'She then turned to the third man, who was contemplating his reply.
'Well, out at my dad's property, you step out of the house and on the
wall there's a light switch.
When you flip that switch, way out across the pasture the light on the
barn comes on in less than an instant. 'Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is the
fastest thing I can think of'
Jennifer was very impressed with the third answer and thought she had
found her man.
'It 's hard to beat the speed of light,'she said.
Turning to Wally, the fourth and final man, Jennifer posed the same
question.
Old Wally replied, 'After hearing the previous three answers, it's
obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHOEA.
''WHAT !' said Jennifer, stunned by the response.
'Oh sure', said Wally. 'You see, the other day I wasn't feeling so
good, and I ran for the bathroom, but before I could THINK, BLINK, or
TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had already sh*t myself.'
