Mr. Hughes smiled wider.
"Good, good. And what would you say are your strengths and weaknesses, Adam?"
Adam scratched his chin, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Uh, well, I think my strength is that I work hard, and I never give up. I always try to do my best.
As for weaknesses... I guess I'm not the most creative person. I stick to what I know, but I'm willing to learn."
Mr. Hughes chuckled. "Honesty is important. Thank you for being sincere."
Then he leaned toward Adam and said,
"Can you tell me about the weaknesses of the other staff members and workers? I will be honest with you, as long as tell me one weakness of everyone, I will give you the position."
Adam's face changed. For a moment, he was tempted to spill the beans; however, thinking how it will take away many people's jobs and how their weakness doesn't affect the company in a negative way, he decided to shake his head and say,
"I don't know."
Mr. Hughes stared at Adam for a long while before chuckling.
