Is the glass half full or half empty?

Is the glass half full or half empty?
 

The optimist says the glass is half full.
The pessimist says the glass is half empty.
The project manager/engineer says the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
The realist says the glass contains half the required amount of liquid for it to overflow.
And the cynic... wonders who drank the other half.
The school teacher says it �s not about whether the glass is half empty or half full, it �s whether there is something in the glass at all.
Anyway... Attitude is not about whether the glass is half full or half empty, it �s about who is paying for the next round.

This particular item is growing.

The glass is half-full, half-empty, in some other state, or in a different space/time continuum altogether, please I need to konw.

Have a blessed life.....kisses...Neidinha.

Is the glass half full or half empty?

i had an opinion in my mind that question is to test someone whether s/he is an optimist or a pessimist person. Never had any idea about Professor, school teacher or other opinions related to it.
