An Englishman, Irishman and Scotsman go for the same job.

he manager says he wants each of them to go into his office one at a time to take a test.

he Englishman goes in and is presented with a potato, a lettuce and a knife.

The manager asks him which is the odd one out.

The Englishman says, "the knife, that's mineral and the other two are vegetables."

"Well done," says the manager, "send the Scottish guy in."

The Scotsman is presented with the same test.

He says, "the knife - you can eat the other two."

"Fair enough," says the manager, "send in the Irish chap."

The Irishman goes in, and is again faced with the same test.

He answers, "the lettuce"

"How have you reached that conclusion?" the manager asks.

The Irishman says, "come on, it's dead easy - you can make chips with the other two,"
