Bubba applied for an engineering position at a Lake Charles refinery.
A Yankee applied for the same job and both applicants having the same
qualifications were asked to take a test by the manager.
Upon completion of the test, both men only missed one of the questions.
The manager went to Bubba and said: 'Thank you for your interest, but
we've decided to give the Yankee the job.'
Bubba asked: 'And why are you giving him the job? We both got nine
questions correct. This being Louisiana and me being a Southern
boy, I should get the job!'
The manager said: 'We have made our decision not on the correct answers
but rather on the one question that you both missed.'
Bubba then asked: 'And just how would one incorrect answer be better
than the other?'
The manager replied: 'Bubba, it's like this. On question #4 the Yankee
put down; 'I don't know..' You put down, 'Neither do I'.
