Lol I definitely wouldn’t get hired because my first thought was to eat it too. I can’t keep an elephant. Know how much those MFing things eat? It’ll eat me straight into the poor house. Nah, you gotta be butchered for meat. Sorry

I’m guessing the correct answer is to charge money for elephant rides or rent it out for events or capitalize off it somehow. If it’s a sales or supervisor position especially, they probably want to see something entrepreneurial

Idk how much truth there is to it but the supposed origins of the white elephant gift exchange goes back to the king of Siam gifting white elephants to people in his court who pissed him off. The gift was supposed to be seen as an honor, but the animals upkeep was a huge burden, and you couldn't sell or kill it because it was a gift from the king, so you were just kind of fucked taking care of an elephant for life.
