Typing Test A woman goes to an office to apply for the typist's job, and the manager is interviewing her: "How fast can you type?" "Well, I'm not sure, but I really need this job." "Well, can you type 80 words a minute?" "No, sir, I don't think so, but I really need this job." "Perhaps, then, you can type 60 words a minute?" "Maybe not quite that fast, but I really need this job." "Ma'am, can you type 40 words a minute?" "No, sir, that may be a little too fast, but I really need this job." "Tell me, please if you can type 20 words a minute." "I'm not really so sure, but but I really need this job." "Oh, I see," said the interviewer, "you're just a hunt-n-pecker." "Sir," she said, pulling herself up to show her full dignity, "I am not huntin' anything. I TOLD you I REALLY need this job!"
