Do We Really Work by kamsy(f): 3:54pm On Jun 01, 2006
After 2 years of selfless service, a man realized that he had not been promoted, no transfer, no salary increase, no commendation and that the company is not doing any thing about it.

So he decided to walk up to his manager one morning and after exchanging greetings, he told his manager his observation. The boss looked at him, laughed and asked him to sit down saying; "My friend, you have not worked here for even one day".

The man was surprised to hear this, but the manager went on to explain.

Manager:- How many days are there in a year?

Man:- 365 days and some times 366


Manager:- how many hours make up a day?

Man:- 24 hours


Manager:- How long do you work in a day?

Man:- 8am to 4pm. i.e. 8 hours a day.


Manager:- So, what fraction of the day do you work in hours?

Man:- He did some arithmetic and said 8/24 hours ie. 1/3 (one third)



Manager:- That is nice of you! What is one-third of 366 days?

Man:- 122 (1/3x366 = 122 in days)



Manager:- Do you come to work on weekends?

Man:- No sir



Manager:- How many days are there in a year that are weekends?

Man:- 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals to 104 days



Manager:- Thanks for that. If you remove 104 days from 122 days, how
many days do you now have?

Man:- 18 days.




Manager:- OK ! I do give you 2 weeks leave every year. Now remove that
14 days from the 18 days left. How many days do you have
remaining?

Man:- 4 days




Manager:- Do you work on New Year day?

Man:- No sir!



Manager:- Do you come to work on Worker's day?

Man:- No sir!



Manager:- So how many days are left?

Man:- 2 days sir!



Manager:- Do you come to work on the (National holiday)?

Man:- No sir!



Manager:- So how many days are left?

Man:- 1 day sir!



Manager:- Do you work on Religious festivities day?

Man:- No sir!



Manager:- So how many days are left?

Man:- None sir!



Manager:- So, what are you claiming?

Man:- I understood Sir ! thank you Sir for all the money you have been
giving me, I am sorry for trying to steal from the Company !!!!!!
