A Jobless Man Applied For The Position Of 'office Boy' At Microsoft. by Nobody: 1:35pm On Nov 24, 2014
A jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft.

The HR manager interviewed him, then gave him a test: clean the floor. The man passed the test with flying colors.

"You are hired," HR manager informed the applicant, "give me your e-mail address, and I'll send you the application for employment, as well as the date you should report for work.

The man replied " I don't have a computer, or an email!"

"I'm sorry," said the HR manager. "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And we cannot hire persons who do not exist."

The man was very disappointed.

He didn't know what to do. He only had $10 with him. Once that is spent, he won't have any money to buy any food.

He went to the supermarket and bought a crate of tomatoes with his $10.

He went from door to door and sold the tomatoes in less than two hours. He doubled his money.

He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60. He realized that he can survive
this way. He started to go everyday earlier, and return late.

He doubled or tripled his money every day. Soon, he bought a cart, then a truck. In a very short time, he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.

Five years later, the man became one of the biggest food retailers in the U. S. He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.

He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.

At the end of the conversation, the broker asked him for his email address.

The man replied: ' I don't have an email.'

The broker was dumbfounded. "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded in building an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?," he exclaimed.

The man thought for a while, and replied, "an office boy at Microsoft!"

If you just lost your Job or Just failed an Interview Don't worry be Optimistic..... Good days are on the way and something better is reserved for you.

if you have ever been disappointed i mean big time like your life depends on it, then you can understand what exactly am trying to say. I'm possible says alot of opportunities but our focus determines our feeling that we pay little attention to those things that can actually break the chain of poverty in our life. Well it doesn't have to go thesame way knowing fully well that we are all gifted and unique in our different ways.
I use this opportunity to pray for Nigeria to be bless with good leaders who will be atlist be reasonable enough to think that if the place we call home is well governed we all gonna enjoy the peace and harmony, they have the billions there sons and daughters are well brought up so that they can provide for themselves,they are to yet goin to inherit they millions yet to provide a gainful employment for we commoners still hard them. pscheeeeeeewwww!!!! cry

All these lie lie stories. This is what the rich use to deceive poor people. A tomato seller will see this and be happy with mediocrity.
