【梧州】Harry wanted to find a job after finishing school. One day he came to a big company for it. There were six young people with Harry that day, but the company only wanted one. The interview was very easy. It was only a few minutes' short talk. Then all of them were asked to go back home and wait. On the morning of the third day, Harry got a text message. It said, "We're sorry to tell you, someone did better than you in the interview. So you can't work in our company."
Harry felt very disappointed. However, he answered "Thank you all the same." in the text message. Later that afternoon, Harry got another message. It said, "We are glad to tell you that you can be one of us."
Harry couldn't believe his eyes. It was a big surprise to him. He didn't know why, so he called the company and asked about it. The interviewer told him, "That's because of the same message in the morning. Only you said 'thank you'. That was the real test, so only you gave the right answer."
