JOB OPENING AT CIA

A few months ago, there was an opening with the CIA for an assassin.
These highly classified positions are hard to fill, and there's a lot of
testing and background checks involved. After training and testing, they
narrowed the possible choices down to three, but only one position was
available. The day came for the final test to see which person would get
the extremely secretive job.

The CIA men administering the test 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," they explained. "Inside
this room, you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Take this gun and
kill her."
The man got a shocked look on his face and said, "You can't be
serious! I could never shoot my own wife!"
"Well," says the CIA man, "You're definitely not the right man for
this job then."

So they bring the second man to the same door and hand him a gun.
"We must know that you will follow instructions no matter what the
circumstances," they explained to the second man. "Inside you will find
your wife sitting in a chair. Take this gun and kill her."
The second man looked a bit shocked, but nevertheless took the gun
and went in the room. All was quiet for about 5 minutes, then the door
opened. The man came out of the room with tears in his eyes. "I tried to
shoot her, I just couldn't pull the trigger and shoot my
wife.
! "I guess I'm
not the right man for the job." "You don't have what it takes. Take your
wife and go home." the CIA man replied.

Now they're down to the last man left to test. They led him to the
same door to the same room and handed him the same gun. "We must be sure
that you will follow instructions no matter what the circumstances, this
is your final test. Inside you will find your wife sitting in a chair.
Take this gun and kill her."
The man took the gun and opened the door. Before the door even
closed all the way, the CIA men heard the gun start firing. One shot
after another for 13 shots. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on
the walls. This went on for several minutes, then all went quiet.

The door opened slowly, and there stood the man. He wiped the sweat
from his brow and said, "You guys didn't tell me the gun was loaded with
blanks! I had to beat her to death with the chair!"
