[aussiegirl]

Murphy applied for a job at an Irish brewery. A Pole applied for the
same job, and since both applicants had similar qualifications, they
were asked to take a test.

Both men scored 19 out of 20.

The manager said to Murphy, ‘Thank you for coming to the interview, but
we've decided to give the job to the Polish chap.’

Murphy asked, ‘And why would ya be doin’ dat? We both scored 19 outa
20. Dis bein’ Ireland and me bein’ Irish means I should get de the
job.’

The manager replied, ‘We made our decision based on the answers you got
wrong.’

Murphy said, ‘And how can one wrong answer be better dan anudder?’


The manager answered, ‘On question 7 the Pole wrote “I don't know,” and
you wrote, “Neither do I”.’
