Bubba applied for an engineering position at a Lake Charles refinery.
 
A Yankee applied for the same job and both applicants having the same qualifications were asked to take a test by the manager.
 
Upon completion of the test, both men only missed one of the questions.
 
The manager went to Bubba and said: "Thank you for your interest, but we've decided to give the Yankee the job."
 
Bubba asked: "And why are you giving him the job? We both got nine questions correct. This being Louisiana, and me being a Southern boy, I should get the job!"
 
The manager said: "We've made our decision not on the correct answers, but rather on the one question that you both missed."
 
Bubba then asked: "And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?"
 
The manager replied: "Bubba, it's like this. On question #4 the Yankee put down; 'I don't know.' You put down, 'Neither do I.'"
