A mathematician, an accountant and an economist apply for the same
job. The interviewer calls in the mathematician and asks "What do
two plus two equal?" The mathemetician replies "Four." The
interviewer asks "Four, exactly?" The mathematician looks at the
interviewer incredulously and says "Yes, four, exactly."
Then the interviewer calls in the accountant and asks the same
question "What do two plus two equal?" The accountant says
"On average, four - give or take ten percent, but on average, four."
Then the interviewer calls in the economist and poses the same
question "What do two plus two equal?" The economist gets
up, locks the door, closes the shade, sits down next to the
interviewer and says "What do you want it to equal?"
