We've been doing team-building crap at work and some of the exercises are these little brain-teasers....see if you can get the answer without any clues....if you need clues they can only be answered with a yes or no.....
Okay, here it is....

A man goes into a bar and asks for a drink....the bartender pulls out a gun and points it at the man.....the man says "Thankyou" and leaves......WHY?




Another is....

A man fails to find a chair and therefore he dies.....WHY?
First clue.....think what his profession could be......




jane

Ummm Jane, could you explain to me why your job does this? I just wanna make sure I can understand what your sayin cause I damn sure cant understand what they are sayin when someone in Pakistan answers!

I love your phrasing jane -- "team building crap" says it all :)

I can spend all day on these and never come close to solving them. My brain doesn't work that way. It doesn't inspire team work in me, only hostility. The only camaraderie that would come out of me would be the smack talk against management with the other malcontents on my team.

Hahaha, Guv & Sandi! That's me, Sandi....grumble grumble....until you get the stupid answer then it's "let's kill 'em all, the bastards!" I truly think it's just ways to make us feel even more inferior.....

Are you ready for the answers or let it go a bit.....?

The first one is because the guy had hiccups and wanted a surprise. No idea about the second one.

DIngdingding!!!! We have a winner!
That only took me most of last night to figure out....then when it did, DUH

The second is totally related to the man's 'profession'.........

hey Jane...let it go for a bit..it's still to early for me to obsorb content...lol

the second guy was a lion tamer i think.

That's correct!!!!! I never DID get that one....man, I felt like a dumbass!
Sorry Cherry....I'll see if I get anymore tonight for ya!


jane

thanks Jane...by then i'll be awake! lol

lmao!!

My only thought for the guy in the bar was that he was a hopeless alcoholic who the bar tender knew so he chased him out.


The second one . . . equally ridiculous . . . the guy was exhausted and needed to sit down and dropped dead because he couldn't get any rest.


I wonder what shrinks would think about my interpretations.

LOL Sandi! You should've heard some of the questions people were asking for clues....."was the guy playing musical DEATH chairs?" UGH! hahaha

that's okay! my brain can come up with obscure !#$~!@^%$%^!#$%~#@$@ like that all day, but i still have to run around the house like a madman cause i can't find my wallet and car keys, so who really is the dumb@$$???????

Geez Jane, I don't know if I should be allowed to participate in brain teasers. One of the gals here at work is a psychology student and she gave the rest of us a brain teaser thing that is supposed to determine if you have the "thought patterns" of a serial killer or some **** like that. I was the only one who got it right lol. She told me all it means is that I would make a good profiler (ahem...or a good serial killer I guess?)

Do not walk beside me either....in fact, just leave me the hell alone."

jane

sooo...MAZ...are you a serial killer or a cereal killer?

lmao.. Cherry... hahaahaha
