CIA Job Bulletin
The CIA had
an opening for an assassin. After all of the background checks, interviews, and testing
were done, there were three finalists, two men and a woman. For the final test, the CIA
agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun. "We must know
that you will follow your instructions, no matter what the circumstances. Inside of this
room, you will find your wife sitting in a chair, Kill Her!!!"
The man said, "You can't be serious. I could never shoot my wife." The agent
said, "Then you're not the right man for this job."
The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room.
All was quiet for about five minutes. Then the man came out with tears in his eyes.
"I tried, but I can't kill my wife." The agent said, "You don't have what
it takes. Take your wife and go home."
Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions, to kill her
husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one shot after
another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all
was quiet. The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her
brow, and said, "This gun is loaded with blanks. I had to beat him to death with the
chair."
