Cubicle Conundrum - Day 4

Q: What’s news on your on-site opportunity?

N: My boss rejected my application.

Q: Why? You don’t know squat about what you’re doing. You’re perfect!

N: They gave it to the new guy based on a tie-breaker question.

Q: What was the question?

N: “What is the name of our customer?”

Q: Well you said you didn’t know so I suppose you would have proven your ignorance and therefore your sound credentials for going on-site.

N: Well that’s what I thought, but the other guy didn’t know either.

Q: I don’t get it. Then how did that end up being the tie-breaker question?

N: Well I answered I said I did not have the faintest clue.

Q: Okay, what did he say?

N: Nothing.
