Young Boudreaux applied for an engineering job way, way up north in
Shreveport. A local man applied for the same job and both applicants, having the same
qualifications, were asked to take a test by the department manager.
Upon completion of the test, both men missed only one question. The manager
went up to Boudreaux and said "Thank you for your interest, but we've decided
to give the local man the job." Boudreaux said "Why you gonna be doin dat sir,
we both got 9 questions right?"
The manager said, "We made our decision not on the correct answers, but on
the one you missed."
Boudreaux asked "An jus how da heck would one incorrect answer be mo betta
dan da otter?"
The manager replied, "Simple, the local man put down on question #5, 'I don't
know,' you put down, 'neither do I.'
