An elderly man wants a job, but the foreman won’t hire him until he passes a little maths test.
“Here is your first question.” The foreman says.
“Without using numbers, represent the number nine?”
“Without numbers?”
The old man says. “That’s easy.”
And he proceeds to draw three trees.
“What is this?” asks the boss.
“You don’t have a brain? Tree plus tree plus tree makes nine.” Says the old man.
“Fair enough.” Says the boss.
“Here is your second question. Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99?”
The man stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree, and hands it back.
The boss scratches his head and says.
“How on earth do you get that to represent 99?”
“Each of the trees is dirty now. So it’s a dirty tree plus a dirty tree plus a dirty tree. It’s 99.”
“Okay, last question. Again the same rules, but represent the number 100?”
The old man stares into space again; Then he picks up the picture, makes a little mark at the base of each tree, and hands it back.
The boss looks at the picture of the man.
“You must be nuts if you think that represents a hundred?”
The old man leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each tree and whispers.
“A little dog came along and pooped by each tree. So now you got dirty tree and a turd, plus dirty tree and a turd, plus dirty tree and a turd, which makes 100.”
LOL!!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
A white-haired old man walked into a jewelry store on a Friday.
An old, white-haired man walked into a jewelry store on a Friday with a beautiful young lady at his side.
“I’m looking for a special ring for my girlfriend,” he said.
Our jeweler looked through our stock and took out an outstanding ring priced at $5,000.
“I don’t think you understand – I want something very unique,” the man said.
At that, our now very excited jeweler went and fetched our special stock from the safe. “Here’s one stunning ring at $40,000.”
The girl’s eyes sparkled, and the man said that he would take it.
“How are you paying?” asked our jeweler.
“I’ll pay by check, but of course, the bank will want to make sure that everything is in order, so I’ll write a check and you can phone the bank tomorrow, and then I’ll fetch the ring on Monday.”
Monday morning, our very disappointed jeweler phoned the man.
“You lied, there’s no money in that account.”
“I know, sorry, but can you imagine what a FANTASTIC weekend I had?”
LOL!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
