Sadly, Tony was born without ears, and though he proved to be
Successful in business, his problem 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, Tony asked him, 'Do
You notice anything different about me?' 'Why, yes, I couldn't help but
Notice that you have no ears,' came the reply.
Tony did not appreciate his honesty and threw him out of the office
The second interview was with a woman, and she was even better than
The first guy. But he asked her the same question: 'Do you notice
Anything different about me?'
'Well,' she said stammering, 'you have no ears.'
Tony 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.
Tony was anxious, but 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?'
Tony was shocked and realised this was an incredibly observant person.
'How in the world did you know that?', he asked.
The young man fell off his chair laughing hysterically and replied,
'Well, it's pretty hard to wear glasses with no f**king ears! '
