Applicants [Solved]
« on: August 09, 2005, 05:38:03 am »
Two men applied for a job. The first man, John Smith, stated in his application that he had 10 years of experience. That he graduated in 1959 from John F. Kennedy High School, and had graduated from a four year college with top grades, and had several references.

The second man, Tom Jones stated he had 3 years of experience, and had dropped out of high school. He had only one reference.

The manager shocked everyone, and hired Tom Jones. Why?

Johnny wasn't president till 1961, so I doubt there would be a highschool named after him in 1959.
