Tomato Story!
A Jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.
'You are employed' he said. Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.
The man replied 'But I don't have a computer, neither an email'.
'I'm sorry', said the HR manager. If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job.'
The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket.. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate.
He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours,
he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times,
and returned home with $60.
The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday.
Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.
5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US ..
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...
When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email.
The man replied,'I don't have an email.'
The broker answered curiously, 'You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?!!' The man thought for a while and replied, 'Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!'
Moral of the story
Let the QLers have to decide....
Crises
Story has changed even further now. You can get a job in microsoft only if you don't have an email ID. Because nowadays they are selling tomatoes in their offices.
Are you nuts?......no doubt I am crazy about you!

Victory

Khuda Meherbaan, to Gadha Pahalwaan
lolzzzzzzzz
Nothing succeeds like success......Khuda meherbaan, to gadha pahalwaan. I know many who don't have email ids and work as sweepers.
i just received this, and thought to share on QL.
I cant stop thinking about:
- Office boy at Microsoft??? That position does not exist.
- $10 for 10kg tomatoes??? In the US??? They don't use Kg, and $1/kg is too cheap.
- Double his capital?? This won't scale to "one of the biggest food retailers in the US"... It would only work for a few months.
So this stupid joke does not have a "Moral or the story"... It was probably written by an office boy :P
dry with tht i agree u cant find any in this one
Moral of the story: nt necessarily every story has a moral.
one more "The HR manager at Microsoft is an idiot"
another could be "don't believe in HR managers"
a huge lol at the "over 60" one....
This is not a true to life story...
mentality
ok.. moral.. tomato's are getting cheap.. 10 bucks for 10 Kg. Buy them before the stock Last.
Moral 3!
If u are over 60, u can't understand the joke!
if u have 10 bucks in your pocket then by tomatoes

Moral 1
Internet is not the solution to your life..
Moral 2
If you don't have an Internet, and work hard, you can be a millionaire.
Lawlxxx Adil!
Had received it from a friend & moral of the story is this that if u wan achieve something u can do it all Ur need is hard work:)
The moral of the story is stupid: "If you have an email address then you should be an office boy".
While I applaud the entrepreneurship part, it's still a stupid joke.
A good example. Nice story.
GOOD ONE AADIL...
