Sadly, Dave was born without ears. And although he proved to be
successful in business, his lack of ears annoyed him greatly. One day he
needed to hire a new manager for his company, so he set up three interviews.
The first guy was great. He knew everything he needed to know and was very
interesting. But at the end of the interview, Dave asked
"Do you notice anything different about me?"
"Why yes, I couldn't help but notice that you have no ears" came the reply.
He did not appreciate his candour and threw him out of the office.
The second interview was with a woman, and she was even better than the
first guy. And he asked her the same question: "Do you notice anything
different about me?"
"Well," she said, stammering, "you have no ears." Dave again got upset and
chucked her out in a rage.
The third and final interviewee was the best of the bunch, he was a young
man who had recently earned his MBA. He was smart. He was handsome and he
seemed to be a better businessman than the first two put together.
Dave was anxious, but went ahead and asked the young man the same question:
"Do you notice anything different about me?"
Much to his surprise, the young man answered, "Yes, you wear contact lenses,
don't you?" Dave was shocked and realised this was an incredibly observant
person.
"How in the world did you know that?", he asked.
The young man then fell off his chair laughing hysterically and
replied,
"Well, it's pretty hard to wear glasses with no fucking ears!"
