1. Giraffe won't fit in the fridge.
2. Elephant won't fit either.
3. Just because you put an elephant in a fridge doesn't mean other elephants can't attend.
4. How would you know you've come across a river inhabited by crocodiles if there are none there?
This test has got to be a joke. There is no way this tests how "professional" somebody is. I've seen it numerous places across the internet, and it has yet to make sense. There is also nothing in the first two questions to denote that they are related or sequenced actions. The questions are presented separately and not in conjecture with each other, so in fact, it makes more sense to answer them as separate situations. I may be the only one that sees it that way though...it's typical for me.  _________________ -Brother Adam (we are all one family)

I thought, 100 percent, precisely, the answers you mentioned.
So that is now "2". |

I'd just like the chance to enlighten the original author as to how much of a moron this test makes them look like. _________________ -Brother Adam (we are all one family)

My thoughts were:
Q: How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
A: Well, a giraffe won't fit unless you grind it up, and that's a LOT of giraffe burger.
Q: How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?
A: Sorry, can't think about that just yet. I'm still putting packages of giraffe in the fridge.
Q: The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend... except one .. Which animal does not attend?
A: Who gives a shit? I'm too damned busy switching out the packages of giraffe burger with elephant burger, and I don't think it's all going to fit!
Q: There is a river you must cross but it is inhabited by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it?
A: I'll give them the ground meat and float across in the fridge.
Man, was I off.
