It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time. This little test should help you get started.


During a visit to a mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criteria is that defines if a patient should be institutionalized.


"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub. Then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the bathtub."


Okay, here's your test:

1. would you use the spoon?

2. Would you use the teacup?

3. Would you use the bucket?


"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket, as it is larger than the spoon."

What was the director's response?
