2)   A nervous 16 year old applying for a position in the Royal Navey when asked the question can you swim ? replied 'why havn't you got enough ships !

3)   A candidate was asked if there was anything he did not like to do, expecting an answer related to the computer programming position he was applying for. After much debate, he answered, "I don't like to clean my bathtub."

4)   “My priorities are to get paid as much as possible for doing as little as possible” ok clearly a no to hire but still felt it needed including as a funny answer!
