Rob and Tom apply for the same job and take a written test as part of the application process. "You got the same number of questions wrong," the HR person tells them, "but Rob gets the job."

"Well," says the HR person, "one of Rob's incorrect answers was better than yours."
"Whoa, how can that be?"
"For problem 46, Rob wrote, 'I don't know.' And you wrote, 'Me neither.'"
