This joke would be better spoken by a person with an Irish accent however here goes.
Paddy goes for an interview, the chairperson of the interview panel says "okay Paddy you've done very well in your interview so far and your CV is great the last part of this process is an initive test, using a pen and paper but without writing down any numbers or letters we would like you to demonstrate the number 9"
Paddy thinks about this and draws three trees.
The chairperson says "how does this represent 9 ?"
Paddy says "that easy three t'rees makes 9"
The chairperson a bit put out thinks i'll get him and says "okay how about 99"
Paddy licks his thumb and smears the three trees.
The chairperson says "how does this represent 99 ?"
Paddy says "that easy d'irty t'ree times three makes 99"
The chairperson even more put out thinks i'll get him and says "okay how about 100"
Paddy thinks about this and draws three small shapes under the trees.
The chairperson says "how does this represent 100 ?"
Paddy says "d'irty t'ree and a t'urd times three makes 100"
