It got me thinking of the various answers to this insanely stupid interview question. I'm in sales though so I like to hear other people's creative answers to this
One of the lowest points of my life is the fact I actually was in an interview where this question was asked.

Sell me this pen
Me: You want me to sell you this pen?
Schmuck: Yes.
Me: I can't sell you this pen unless it's mine. Are you giving me this pen?
Schmuck: Yes. Try to sell it to me.
Me: Thank you for the pen [puts in jacket pocket].
Schmuck: You don't get it, you have to sell me the pen.
Me: No I don't. You said it's mine. I like it. It's a really nice pen.
[Schmuck pissed that you won't sell him pen. He really wants that pen.]
[Interview Concludes after more dumbshit questions from Schmuck]
[Write thank you note to Schmuck using pen. Thank him for interview and very nice pen. Mention that you used it to write thank you note]
[Schmuck is now really peeved. He'd do anything to get that pen.]
[Send rehabilitated drug addict to Schmuck's house with pen and a box exactly like it. Have him read off some schpiel about how he's trying to get his life turned around selling pens for $5 and show Schmuck a list of all of his neighbors buying same kind of pen. Schmuck is impressed, knows he's been got, and buys pen. Drug addict gets crack. You get job].
[Show up day one and compliment Schmuck on pen. Tell him its just like the one he gave you. Show him pen he gave you.]
[Schmuck realizes he hired you even though you didn't sell him "the pen" but rather one like it for ridiculous markup.]
[You own Schmuck's balls forever. When you get promoted...fire his dumbass].

It was Jon Voight's pen previously...

My pen is bigger than your pen. You have pen envy now. Buy mine and solve your current dilemma.
Or do you just want the tip? Sold separately.
