A Filipino Applies for a Job at Wal-Mart
An office manager at Wal-Mart was given the task of hiring an
individual to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of
resumes he found four people who were equally qualified. .. An
American, a Russian, an Australian and a Filipino. He 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,
the interviewer asked, "What is the fastest thing you know of?"
Acknowledging Dave, the American on his right, the man replied, "A
THOUGHT". It just pops into your head. There's no warning that it's on
the way; it's just there. A thought is the fastest thing I know of."
"That's very good!" replied the interviewer.
"And now you sir?" he asked Vladimir, the Russian."Hmm.... 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 the interviewer. "The blink of an eye, that's a
very popular cliche for speed."
He then turned to George, the Australian who was contemplating his reply.
"Well, out at my dad's ranch, 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 in the barn comes on. Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is
the fastest thing I can think of."
The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer and thought
he had found his man.
"It's hard to beat the speed of light" he said.
Turning to Eleuterio, the Filipino, the fourth and final man, the
interviewer posed the same question.
Eleuterio replied, "Apter herring da 3 frevyos ansers sirrr, et's
obyus to me dat da pastest ting known is Diarrhea."
"WHAT!?" said the interviewer, stunned by the response.
"O I can expleyn serrr ." said Eleuterio . "You see serr, da odder
day I wasn't peeeling so good and I run soo past to da CR or batroom.
But, before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON DA LIGHT, ay 'tang ina, I
already had a poo-poo in my pants."
