Absenteeism!



 

Best excuse by a female employee!

This incident, is supposed to have happened in real life.

The head of Human Resources at a very large bank, says that the best excuse for absenteeism, that he had ever received in his career of almost 22 years, was from a female Indian employee, at their bank's head quarters at Mumbai, India, in July, 2011.

He says when the lady, was questioned on why she remained absent the previous day,

she simply replied .......

"But sir, I had no option. My husband was on casual leave yesterday and was at home and by mistake he took pills from the wrong bottle in our medicine cabinet and ended up consuming an overdose of Viagra! Now how could I have left him, all alone at home, with the house-maid?"

AFRICAN ROULETTE.. (Joke)




 
The foreign minister of a small African state had opportunity to visit Russia for the very first time. There he was warmly welcomed by his Russian counterpart, who wined and dined him and generally offered him the best hospitality that Russia could offer.

On his last day, the Russian foreign minister took the African foreign minister into a room with a table on which lay a revolver. "My comrade, since you are about to leave, I must introduce you to a custom we have here in Russia, something called RUSSIAN ROULETTE. It is a true test of manhood and worth, and how it works is that you must take the revolver, spin the cylinders, hold the revolver to your head and then pull the trigger. Only one of the six chambers is loaded."

The African leader, being of proud warrior stock and a courageous man, took the revolver, spun the cylinder, snapped it shut, pointed it at his head and sighed with relief when all he heard was 'click', but no shot.

Well impressed with his bravery, he and the Russian drank vodka until the African leader had to be carried aboard his plane.

Six months later the Russian foreign minister visits the African foreign minister's country. The African, remembering keenly the Russian roulette he had to play previously, took the Russian into a room on the last day of his visit. In the room were six beautiful, naked young women.

"To prove your courage and manhood, see before you six of the most beautiful women from each of our tribes. This is something I call 'African roulette'. You may pick any one of them and they will give you a blowjob."

The Russian, not too averse to this idea at all, asks the African, "But where is the risk? To be called roulette there must be some form of risk involved."

The African smiles broadly and says "One of the six is a cannibal."

Thought of Sharing



 A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He found the boy's father pacing anxiously, waiting for him.
Seeing him, the father yelled, "Why did you take so long to get here? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have the sense of responsibility?"


  The doctor said calmly with a gentle smile, "I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital and I came the fastest I could, after receiving the call.
I know it is tough, but take a deep breath and calm down."

 "Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If you felt that you would lose your son, what would you do?"
said the father angrily.

 
 The doctor smiled again and replied: "I believe that life and death are in the hands of God and we can only do so much.
Go and pray for your son, we will do our best by God's grace."

 "Sympathy is so much easier than empathy. It is easy to dismiss someone else's trials because they aren't your own", muttered the father.

 After a long while, the doctor came out of the operating room. "I've got good news! Your son is saved! If you have any questions please ask the nurse."
And without waiting for the father's reply, he immediately rushed off.

"What a cold and unfeeling man!" exclaimed the man, "He couldn't even wait a few minutes so that I could ask him about my son."

Hearing him, the nurse replied, "The doctor's son has been extremely ill for many weeks, but as soon as he received the call about your son,
he immediately rushed to the hospital. Now that he is confident that your son is safe, the doctor's hurrying back to be with his son."


How many times do we make wrong assumptions, when we only look at things from our own point of view?
Just as we expect empathy from others, it would fare us even better if we can empathise with others as well.
Let's make it a point to give others the benefit of doubt and…
