A recent Italian immigrant applied for a job one day but the foreman
wouldn't hire him until he passed a little math test.

"Here's your first question," the foreman said. "Without using numbers,
represent the number 9."

"Withouta numbers," the Italian said. "Datta easy." He proceeded to draw
three trees.

"What's this?" the boss asked. "Have you got no brain?"

"Tree and tree and tree makea nine," said the Italian.

"Fair enough," said the boss. "Here's your second question. Use the same
rules, but this time the number is 99."

The Italian stared into space for a while, then picked up the picture that
he had just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go."

The boss scratched his head and said, "How on earth do you get that to
represent 99?"

"Each ofa da trees isa dirty now. So, it'sa dirty tree, and dirty tree, and
dirty tree. Datsa 99."

The boss was getting worried that he was going to have to actually hire
this Italian, so he said, "All right, last question. Same rules again, but
represent the number 100."

The Italian stared into space some more, then picked up the picture again,
made a little mark at the base of each tree and said, "Ere you go. Onea
hundred."

The boss looked at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think that
represents a hundred!"

(You're going to love this one!)

The Italian leaned forward, pointed to the marks at the base of each tree
and said, "A little doga comea long and crapa by eacha tree. So now you
gotta dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd and dirty tree and a
turd. Datta makea one hundred. So, when I'm a gonna start?"

Don't you just love stereotyping. Still made me laugh though.
