Human being keeps on learning for lifelong. The point at which he dies, he actually learns how to die :) Isn't? Think about it.. Life is not measured by number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away! This blog presents best of my readings which I liked very much. If you like it as well, do leave me a comment/ suggestion :) Thank you for browsing my blog. Enjoy the blog!

Never ever assume that your boss knows what he's doing
Managing Director standing in front of a shredder with a piece of paper in
his hand.
"Listen," said the Managing Director, "this is a very sensitive and
important document, and my secretary is not here. Can you make this thing
work?"
"Certainly," said the young engineer. He turned the machine on, inserted the
paper, and pressed the start button.
"Excellent, excellent!" said the Managing Director as his paper disappeared
inside the machine, "I just need one copy."
Lesson:
Never ever assume that your boss knows what he's doing.

Wonderful Example of Self Appraisal !!
A little boy went to a telephone booth which was at the cash counter of a store and dialed a number.
The store-owner observed and listened to the conversation:
Boy: "Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?
Woman: (at the other end of the phone line) "I already have someone to cut my lawn."
Boy: "Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price than the person who cuts your lawn now."
Woman: I'm very satisfied with the person who is presently cutting my lawn.
Boy: (with more perseverance) "Lady, I'll even sweep the floor and the stairs of your house for free.
Woman: No, thank you.
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver. The store-owner, who was listening to all this, walked over to the boy.
Store Owner: "Son... I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job."
Boy: "No thanks,
Store Owner: But you were really pleading for one.
Boy: No Sir, I was just checking my performance at the job I already have. I am the one who is working for that lady I was talking to!!!"
INDEED WONDERFUL!
