S1x's miniature puzzle (until it finally gets solved)

**S1x** · 02-16-2005, 05:53 PM

"His impatience cost him his job."

In this puzzle, each poster may ask a question that can be answered with a "yes" or "no" in order to solve the exact situation that stems from that sentence I provided you. (Example: "Did he work for a ______?") Once you have "deduced" enough information, you can then try to explain in one paragraph exactly what happened. When anybody correctly does this, VGF has solved the puzzle. So, begin.

By the way, I only ever made two of these. The other one I already showed you. So, if you like these types of puzzles, feel free to donate one. It has to be.... good, though.

Did the person in question die?

**S1x** · 02-16-2005, 06:09 PM

Nope, remained alive.

X-3 · 02-16-2005, 06:30 PM

Did he work in the bank?

Super_Mario_1987 · 02-16-2005, 06:48 PM

Was it bigger than a breadbox?

**S1x** · 02-16-2005, 07:19 PM

^ ha ha ha?

Not a bank... although it doesn't really matter too much...

Chunky Kong12345 · 02-16-2005, 07:44 PM

Did he work with machinery that requires patience?

Link2000 · 02-16-2005, 07:52 PM

Was his job slow-paced?

**S1x** · 02-16-2005, 11:11 PM

Whether it was slow-paced or not... is not really a factor.

Did he use machinery that required patience? I guess some people would say yes, but I'm not completely sure...

Does he pre-thread needles for emergency sewing kits?

Chunky Kong12345 · 02-18-2005, 04:48 PM

^^ He's turned into that damned 20 Questions thing.

Was it a common job?

**S1x** · 02-18-2005, 05:15 PM

No needles.

Common job? I could make up something and work from there, and for the sake of this I'll say yes, but that's not exactly the important thing to focus on.

Did his job involve keeping track of time?

**S1x** · 02-20-2005, 09:11 PM

Everybody's targeting the exact job. I don't know why. Eh, the answer is no.
