Humorous Interview Exchange Between a Young Man and a Police Officer
A Witty Encounter During a Police Job Interview
A young man attended an interview for a police position, where the officer posed a question about the price of apples, asking how much 100 grams would cost if a kilogram is priced at 150 rupees.
Although the young man struggled with math, he cleverly replied, 'Sir, if I have to pay for 100 grams of apples, then what’s the point of being a police officer?'
The officer, undeterred, continued, 'Alright, but if your wife goes to the market, how much would 100 grams of apples cost her at the same rate?'
The young man confidently responded, 'Oh sir, I know my wife better than you do; she will definitely ask for the price of 100 grams directly.'
The officer persisted, 'Okay, but what if your brother goes to buy them?'
The young man replied, 'Don’t even mention him, sir. He’s completely useless and just lazes around all day.'
Not giving up, the officer asked, 'What if your father goes to buy apples?'
'Sir, my father doesn’t even have teeth left,' the young man said. 'He eats bananas, so he won’t buy apples or ask for their price.'
The officer, still trying, inquired, 'If your sister goes to the market to buy apples, what would happen?'
'Sir, I married her off five years ago. It’s up to her and her husband now whether they buy apples, lychees, oranges, or mangoes. What do I care?'
The young man added, 'And anyway, will I be the one working, or will my entire family do it for me?'
The officer's patience was wearing thin, and he exclaimed, 'If an ordinary person goes to buy apples, how much would 100 grams cost?'
'Sir, the government and our system have left ordinary people with no means to buy apples; they are struggling just to have bread and salt. The common man only sets up a stall for apples, while the privileged ones are the ones who actually buy and eat them.'
