[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1683372, member: 694"] This nails it! I hired in a laborer for a major refinery and ended up in charge nights and weekends. Every time I would be up for advanced position the company would give an IQ test. Finally after about the third one I ask the psychologist why they tested each time. He explained you could have the IQ of Einstein and be happy living under an overpass. You could be ate up with drive with a 100 IQ. Then he went on to explain that while being an excellent employee you would never run the place as you couldn’t juggle that many complex problems. He went on to explain regardless of ones IQ most become satisfied at some station in life. I saw that with myself and a lot of other mangers, One of the most interesting things he showed me was the average American IQ from somewhere around 1980 it was in decline. He stated as more became dependent on social programs the decline would increase. It made perfect sense we were incentivizing the poor and uneducated. The government always gets what it subsidizes.
