CONTEST -- If You Were a Tree, What Kind Would You Be?

Win half the SBD for this post! Come on, play!

Contest No. 8 -- You? A Tree? Heck Yeah!

Hey, everybody! It’s time for Contest #8! This starts week two of my super easy contests. I hope you’re having as much fun playing them as I am coming up with an idea each day.

Today all you have to do is write a comment (Reply to this post) with what kind of tree you’d be if you were a tree.

Actual Job Interview Questions

I remember back in the day when they asked this (or a similar) type question on job interviews. I always thought that was sort of weird but for our contest, I like it!

From the careerconfidential website, here’s what they say about this type of interview question:

“If you’re answering the tree question, think about how fruit trees are productive, oak trees are strong and reliable, but cottonwood trees spread trash that everyone hates. I wouldn’t choose a Weeping willow, because that just seems sad. Sugar maples are productive, too (syrup). Evergreen trees are steady. Palm trees are flexible.

A lot of people go for the oak tree: “I would be an oak tree, because I’m strong and dependable.”

If you just can’t stand the thought of choosing a tree, you could try saying something like, “I want to be the tree that would be most productive and useful to this organization. That’s my goal.”

You don’t need to get this serious about it unless of course you want to!

A Sample Answer

Here’s an example of what kind of tree I might want to be:

a maple because of those whirly gig seeds that fall off them

The Deadline

This contest will be open for 7 days. When this post pays out in 7 days, the contest closes.

So be sure get your entry in early!

The Prize

The winner will earn half (50%) of the SBD earned from this post!

As the "judge," I have the final say on who the winner is.

Rules To Play

Here's the fine print. Be sure to follow these rules or your comment / entry won't count. There are only two! It's really simple!

1. Hit Reply and type in the type of tree you’d like to be in the comment.
2. Upvote this post. The more people who upvote, the more the payout will be. It's as simple as that.

That's it!

NOTE: Please don’t write anything along the lines of "upvote me!" or "follow me." If you do, you'll be disqualified. That contributes absolutely nothing and is just spammy, so don't do it. Please!

Winner Announcement

After 7 days when the contest ends, the winner will be either randomly chosen or I will choose a winner. I will announce the winner that day (or the next day in case I get busy or it's late in the day and I'm snoozing).

For this contest, I'll use an online random picker so everyone has the same odds of winning!

Spread the Word!

Let your Steemit friends and followers know about this contest so more can play! It's easy and hopefully will be fun.

And the more who play, the bigger the prize will be.

So, feel free to Resteem this post or link it to promotion groups. Thanks for playing!
