So, take the following test presented here and determine if you are losing it or are still "with it."

OK, relax, clear your mind and... lets begin. Don't see answers until you have the answer and dont cheat!


1. What do you put in a toaster?



Answer: "bread." If you said "toast," then give up now and go do something else. Try not to hurt yourself. If you said, "bread," go to Question 2.




2. Say "silk" five times. Now spell "silk." What do cows drink?


Answer: Cows drink water. If you said "milk," please do not attempt the next question. Your brain is obviously over stressed and may even overheat.
If you said "water" then proceed to question 3.




3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from?



Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said "green bricks," what the devil are you still doing here reading these questions? If you said "glass," then! go on to Question 4.





4. Its twenty years ago, and a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over Germany(If you will recall, Germanyat the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany.)
Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the engine fails before he has time and the plane fatally crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East Germanyand West Germany.
Where would you bury the survivors? East Germany or West Germanyor in "no man's land"?



Answer: You don't, of course, bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING else,
you are a real dunce and you must NEVER try to rescue anyone from a plane crash. Your efforts would not be appreciated. If you said, "Don't bury the survivors", then proceed to the next question.





5. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from Londonto MilfordHaven in Wales. In London, 17 people get on the bus. In Reading, six people get off the bus and nine people get on.
In Sweden, two people get off and four get on. In Cardiff, 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In Swansea, three people get off and five people get on In Carmarthen, six people get off and three get on. You then arrive at MilfordHaven. What was the name of the bus driver?

A Management Story

Story # 1
It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a lion is sitting outside his cave, lying lazily in the sun. Along comes a fox, out on a walk.
...
Fox: "Do you know the time, because my watch is broken"
Lion: "Oh, I can easily fix the watch for you"
Fox: "Hmm... But it's a very complicated mechanism, and your big claws will only destroy it even more“
Lion: "Oh no, give it to me, and it will be fixed"
Fox: "That's ridiculous! Any fool knows that lazy lions with great claws cannot fix complicated watches"
Lion: "Sure they do, give it to me and it will be fixed"
The lion disappears into his cave, and after a while he comes back with the watch which is running perfectly. The fox is impressed, and the lion continues to lie lazily in the sun, looking very pleased with himself.
Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the lazy lion in the sun.
Wolf: "Can I come and watch TV tonight with you, because mine is broken"
Lion: "Oh, I can easily fix your TV for you"
Wolf: "You don't expect me to believe such rubbish, do you? There is no way that a lazy lion with big claws can fix a complicated TV“
Lion: "No problem. Do you want to try it?"
The lion goes into his cave, and after a while comes back with a perfectly fixed TV. The wolf goes away happily and amazed.
Scene :
Inside the lion's cave. In one corner are half a dozen small and intelligent looking rabbits who are busily doing very complicated work with very detailed instruments. In the other corner lies a huge lion looking very pleased with himself.
Moral :
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY A MANAGER IS FAMOUS; LOOK AT THE WORK OF HIS SUBORDINATES.
Management Lesson
In the context of the working world :
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY SOMEONE UNDESERVED IS PROMOTED; LOOK AT THE WORK OF HIS SUBORDINATES.


Story # 2
It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a rabbit is sitting outside his burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter. Along comes a fox, out for a walk.
Fox: "What are you working on?"
Rabbit: "My thesis."
Fox: "Hmm... What is it about?"
Rabbit: "Oh, I'm writing about how rabbits eat foxes."
Fox: "That's ridiculous ! Any fool knows that rabbits don't eat foxes!"
Rabbit: "Come with me and I'll show you!"
They both disappear into the rabbit's burrow. After few minutes, gnawing on a fox bone, the rabbit returns to his typewriter and resumes typing.
Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworking rabbit.
Wolf: "What's that you are writing?"
Rabbit: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat wolves."
Wolf: "you don't expect to get such rubbish published, do you?"
Rabbit: "No problem. Do you want to see why?"
The rabbit and the wolf go into the burrow and again the rabbit returns by himself, after a few minutes, and goes back to typing.
Finally a bear comes along and asks, "What are you doing?
Rabbit: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat bears."
Bear: "Well that's absurd ! "
Rabbit: "Come into my home and I'll show you"

Scene :
As they enter the burrow, the rabbit introduces the bear to the lion.
Moral:
IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW SILLY YOUR THESIS TOPIC IS; WHAT MATTERS IS WHOM YOU HAVE AS A SUPERVISOR.
Management Lesson
In the context of the working world:
IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW BAD YOUR PERFORMANCE IS; WHAT MATTERS IS WHETHER YOUR BOSS LIKES YOU OR NOT.

Indian Marwadi Boy

A keen immigrant Indian Marwadi boy applied for a salesman's job at
 London's premier downtown dept store. In fact, it was the biggest
 store in the world - you could get anything there.

 The boss asked him, "Have you ever been a salesman before?"
 "Yes sir, I was a salesman in India", replied the boy.

 The boss liked the cut of him and said,
 "You can start tomorrow, I'll come and see you."

 The day was long and arduous for the young man,
 but he got through it. And finally 6:00 pm came around.

 The boss duly fronted up and asked,
 "How many sales did you make today?"

 "Sir, Just ONE sale." said the young salesman.
 "Only one sale?" blurted the boss.
 "No! No! You see here, most of my staff make 20 or 30 sales a day.
 "If you want to keep this job, you'd better be doing better than just one sale.

 By the way "How much was the sale worth?"
 "50,500/- pounds" said the young Marwadi.

 "What", how did you manage that?" asked the flabbergasted boss.

 "Well", said the salesman, "This man came in and I sold him a small fish hook,
 then a medium hook and finally a really large hook.

 Then I sell him new fishing rod and some fishing gear.
 Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast.

 So I told him he'd be needing a boat, so I took him down to the boat department
 and sold him that twenty-foot schooner with the twin engines.

 Then he said his Volkswagen probably wouldn't be able to pull it, so I took him
 to our automotive department and sold him that new Deluxe 4X4 Blazer.

 I then asked him where he'll be staying, and since he had no accommodation,

 I took him to camping dept and sold him one of those new igloo  6-sleeper camper tents.

 Then the guy said, "while we're at it, I should throw in about 100 pounds sterling.
 worth of groceries  and two cases of beer.

 The boss took two steps back and asked in astonishment,
 "You sold all that to a guy who came in for a fish hook!!"

 "No" answered the salesman,

 "he came in to buy a box of Sanitary napkins for his wife and I said to him,
 "Sir, your weekend's screwed anyway. You might as well go fishing."

 Boss - "You sit in my chair......."
