If my boss asks me what is time to live.... i tell him time to live is the
time left for me to live in this compnay if i don't get a raise!!... and i'd
explain abt 30-40 min on TTL & all related technologies...so next he won't
ask!!

No jokes aparts.. u r right.... i think it depends on how much
is asked & most importantly how "you know" about what is asked!

All i wanted
to find out was if anybody fialed on OEQ because the answer was too short or
anybody cleared OEQ by just keeping the answer too short & not going in much
details...

It's 11 more days for me find out...

Cheers,

Answer should be?

The best way (IMHO) to look at these questions is as if
your boss asked them to you. Would you simply say "time to live", turn around
and walk away?

Some may, but with many bosses, that's not a very wise thing
to do.

Go with that assumption and I don't think you'll go wrong!
