I have been out doing interviews I had one go something like this: INTERVIEWER: I see you have been a carpenter for 15 years. Can you tell me how a hammer works? CARPENTER: Well, you swing the hammer at a nail and the nail goes into the wood. INTERVIEWER: Actually, when you strike the nail, an equal and opposite force is imparted on the hammer. I'm going to have to mark you down as not actually knowing how to use a hammer. CARPENTER: I have built hundreds of beautiful houses that still stand today using hammers. Some would say I am artful with a hammer. INTERVIEWER: Yeah... Well, we're really looking for someone who knows arcane details about hammers that don't really relate to how you use them day to day.
