Even Copying require intelligence

Did you ever "COG" in an examination ? If you did, did you get "KOT"?

Murphy applied for a fork lift operator job at a famous Irish firm based in Dublin. A Polish guy applied for the same job, and since both applicants had similar qualifications, they were asked to take a test and led to a quiet room with no interruptions by the Manager.

When the results were in, both men had scored 19 out of 20.

The manager went to Murphy and said, "Thank you both for coming to the interview, but after we've looked closely at the results, we've decided to give the Polish man the job."

Murphy, "And why in the f**k would you be doing dat? We both got 19 questions roite. And this being Ireland, and me being Irish, surely I should get the job."

Manager, " We have made our decision not on the correct answers, but on the question you got wrong."

Murphy, "Tell me now, how could one incorrect answer be better than another?"

Manager, "Simple. On question number 7, the Pole wrote down, 'I don't know.' You put down, "Neither do I."
