All Salary Earners Must Read This by CXLVII: 3:42pm On Aug 03, 2016

After 4 years of selfless service, I realized that I had not been promoted, no salary increment, no commendation.

So I decided to walk up to my HR Manager.

The manager looked at me, smiled and asked me to sit down saying:

"My friend you have not worked here for even a single day."

I was shocked to hear that!

But the manager went on to explain, and here's the conversation that took place.

Manager: How many days are there in a year?

Me: 365 days and sometimes 366.

Manager: Do u come to work on weekends?

Me: No Sir.

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

Me: 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals to 104 days.

Manager: Thanks for that. If u remove 104 days from 366 days. how many days do u now have?

Me: 262 days

Manager: How many hours make up a day?

Me: 24 Hours.

Manager: How long do u work in a day?

Me: 10am to 6pm - 8 hours a day.

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

Me: 8/24 i.e 1/3 (one third).

Manager: This is nice of u! what is 1/3rd of 262 days?

Me: 87
(1/3 x 262 = 87days)

Manager: I do give u 2 weeks sick leave, 15 days casual leave, 5 days optional leave, 30 days earned leave every year. Now remove that 64 days from the 87 days left. How many days do u have remaining?

Me: 23 days.

Manager: Do u work on festivals? (20 days)

Me: No Sir!

Manager: Do u work on Republic Day?

Me: No sir!

Manager: Do u come to work on Independence Day?

Me: No sir!
Manager: So how many days left?

Me: 1 day sir!

Manager: Do you come to work on New Year's Day?

Me: No sir!!

Manager: So how many days are left?

Me: None Sir!

Manager: So what are u claiming?

Me: I have understood, Sir. I did not realise that I was stealing company
money all these days.

Moral - NEVER GO TO HR FOR HELP!!! (HR-HIGH RISK.)
So, How many days do you work? Good Afternoon![/b]
