Every day a person is surrounded by a large number of people - at work, in transport, on the street, at home. And many of them are simply bewildered by the situation when it is necessary to answer frankly stupid questions. But, in any case, it is better to learn how to answer them than to remain silent in bewilderment.
Instructions
Step 1
If you have never thought about it and just answered the asked stupid question and that's it, and now it starts to annoy you, know that there are three cases when they are asked. The first is simple: a person really does not shine with intelligence, and his questions do not need to be analyzed. Just answer, no matter how strange the question is.
Step 2
In almost any organization, when hiring, they ask what everyone thinks are stupid questions. For example, "Why should we hire you?", "What do you expect from your future job?", "What are your character weaknesses?" etc. Be aware that these are not stupid questions at all. This is a well-built practice of recruiting personnel from personnel officers.
Step 3
The fact is that exactly how you answer such questions will tell a lot about you. Even if they are not in the subject. Therefore, prepare for such serious meetings in advance. Decide immediately how and what you will answer these kinds of questions. Just know that personnel officers are also psychologists, and your revelations or too beautiful speeches will not lead to anything good. Here you need a middle ground.
Step 4
And the third, the most common case, when a person specifically asks stupid questions. Its purpose is to see how you handle this check. Familiarity is a good example. One person will get embarrassed and start babbling something, the other will answer in such a way that it will make the initiator of communication embarrassed.
Step 5
If your friend asks you stupid questions, know that the most correct answer will be so that this desire disappears from him. Answer unexpectedly, with humor. The main thing is not to answer the essence of the question. For example, to the question "Why are you so sad?" answer: "These cows are sad, because they are fat and cannot use makeup, and I was just thinking." After two or three such answers, he will lag behind you.
Step 6
Remember, you do not need to report to people and answer their questions with detailed answers (unless, of course, you do not need it). Learn to treat everything with humor, this will make your life easier and brighter.
