A Joke
As a person educated to be an economist, I love this one.
A mathematician, an accountant and an economist apply for the same job. The interviewer calls in the mathematician and asks, “What do two plus two equal?” The mathematician replies “Four.” The interviewer asks “Four, exactly?” The mathematician looks at the interviewer incredulously and says “Yes, four, exactly.”
Then the interviewer calls in the accountant and asks him the same question. The accountant says, “On average, four - give or take 10 percent, but on average, four.”
Then the interviewer calls in the economist and poses the same question: “What do two plus two equal?” The economist gets up, locks the door, closes the shade, sits down next to the interviewer and says, “What number did you have in mind?
Lol. Via Urban Survival.
