NASA Advert
« on: August 28, 2011, 02:44:12 AM »
NASA was interviewing potential astronauts for a mission to Mars. It was a very tense interview though because, due to fuel and supplies constraints, only one person would fit in the space craft and it would be a one-way trip with no chance of the ‘lucky’ candidate ever returning to Earth. They had received applications from all manner of people with a wide range of skills and backgrounds but they had narrowed the shortlist down to three blokes.

The interviewer asked the first applicant, an engineer, how much he wanted to be paid for going.
“One million dollars,” the engineer answered. “And I want to donate it all to my University to create a scholarship.”

The next applicant was a doctor, and the interviewer asked him the same question.
“Two millions dollars,” said the doctor. “I want to give a million to my family and leave the other million for the advancement of medical research into cancer.”

The last applicant was a lawyer. When asked how much money he wanted, he whispered in the interviewer's ear, “Three million dollars.”

“That’s a lot more than the others?” the interviewer asked. “Why would NASA want to pay so much?”
The lawyer replied, “You give me three million, I'll give you one million, I'll keep a million, and we'll pay the engineer to go.”
