Today’s Tip !! Life Moves Ahead !!

 Every day we move ahead in life. We are not today which we were yesterday. We are not today which we were years ago. Many years many months and days, hours and minutes,moments are including in our past.These years months days are full of incidents and experiences. Some are good to remember some are sad and some are bitter we won’t like to remember. These bitter moments containing our acts of foolishness or innocence, failures regarding relationships, being ditched by someone or getting losses because of some people. Today’s regrets can’t correct them, because it was past, and it was written by the in removable ink, big people, always say, forget them and move on, because it is never changed, so one should only remember the lessons of own mistakes and never repeat the same mistake again. We feel restless when we today realise that someone took advantage of your goodness or your trust. And your goodness or innocence couldn’t be abolished by one time deceiving experience, might be two three or a series of bad experiences, by might be your friends or so called relatives. Today when you are matured and look back you might feel pity on your acts of foolishness. When we are young we follow move on type of sentence, when we are growing old. Each morning we feel one day is deducted from total days of your life, your age has added one more day , your energy strength is being deducted every day. Whatever assets you have collected throughout your lifetime are soon going to become useless for you and collection of Jewellery ,lots of designer dresses or costly sarees in your cupboard are not worth wearing for you because look at you ,in the mirror, how you are looking now, those dresses won’t suit you. Gradually share them with your youngsters, be happy seeing them wearing your things. Keep money with you because money is the key opens many and most important doors of life, specially at this age you can buy services for you. !!

THE PERFECT INTERVIEW

A man gently knocked on the Interview Room door. 

"May I come in Sir"?

One of the Panel Members said .. "Come in".

The Man tried to speak, but he was asked to sit first. So he sat in a Chair facing the Panel Members. 

One of them asked, 

"What do you think of this Room ?"

"Very nicely furnished Sir. A nice Carpet,  Window Screen, a Board, Projector, White Screen. Great Sir".

"Did you not notice that small paper bundled thrown on the floor? Does it not spoil the ambience?"

"Sir I noticed it as soon as I entered this room. If I say something about this the man who threw this will feel awkward. It was thrown by the person sitting second from left. You can just see the scribbling pad on his table. The pad still has some  bit of paper from that bundle because it was not properly torn along the perforations".

"Good observation. Will you just ask the sweeper woman outside to come in and clean this?"

"'Yes Sir. Her name, Sir?"

There was silence. 

"OK Sir. I think no one here knows her name. Any way I shall get her here Sir".

He  went out and asked the name of the sweeper from the Peon sitting outside. 

He called her 

"Bhavani, please come and clean this Interview Room".

The interview resumed.

"You are doing fine. You respect the people who ever they are. Now can you tell me which one of us is the Boss?"

'"Yes Sir. Two of you are just watching this without intervening. One of the two is the Finance man who will step in only while negotiating the salary. The other one is the Director of this whole Play and he is the HR man. The man sitting at the end is just smiling and talking occasionally to you. He is the Boss. Though the person sitting in the centre gets a lot of attention from all of you so that I get confused that he is the boss".

"Splendid. You meet all our requirements.  Just wait outside for a while so that you can collect your Appointment Order".

"No more questions Sir? 

Like what is the height of Patel Statue, where was President Murmu MLA earlier etc etc?"

"No more questions need to be asked.  We only want your name to be confirmed. You are Mr Giridhar from Hyderabad. Is it not?"

"Sorry Sir. HE IS WAITING OUTSIDE".

"Then WHO ARE you?"

"Sir I am Prakash FROM THE CANTEEN. 

I was asked TO ASCERTAIN THE NUMBER OF CUPS OF TEA AND COFFEE to be brought here and IF ANY SNACKS are required.  INSTEAD  I WAS OFFERED A SEAT AND INTERVIEWED. 

It was nice Sir. I enjoyed it. 

Now will you please tell me the number of cups of Tea and Coffee to be brought here".

A pin-drop silence all over the room

Boy Hi

Girl Hello

Boy Where are you, darling...?

Girl - I am in my car with my dad. Dad's BMW has gone for servicing and hence I am using the Mercedes today to go around. We are going to the club. From there, we will go the jewelry shop. They called me yesterday saying that they received a new collection of gold and diamond jewellery and have blocked a few updated designer jewellery sets for me to purchase. I will drop dad back at home after that. 

I will call you at that time. We can meet after I drop dad. Where are you?

Boy : I am in the town bus sitting in the 4th row behind you. Don't purchase ticket, I have already purchased it for you....!!

Today’s Tip !! Backbone !!

 I usually think whose work is more important ? Male’s or Female’s ? I don’t think I am able to decide. Our Indian basic family structure used to base on division of works between husband’s & wife’s works. Right from the beginning of human development it was said “ Man goes out to bring crops and firewood and female cooks food” till today this is followed by the society except some exceptions. Time changed , females get educated and started doing jobs equal to males, started earning somewhere more than males. But at home, she is the home maker, how flour converts into chapatis or paranthas and uncooked vegetables are served as delicious edibles in plates on dining table. Will get clean and washed clothes and everything organised in cupboards and kitchen. Even if a maid comes to wash utensils and cleaning floors, hundreds of works are there in the house. Bringing up children is the most important and biggest task of life, Dads of course provide money for education, but day to day works of the children, waking up early in the morning to get them ready for the school,dropping them to the school bus stop and bringing them from the bus stop,get their homework done, waking them up at the exam time, and many more works till they go to the college are done by Moms.They are always there to serve if someone is sick in the house but they bear most of their pains without sharing with anyone.They are always ready to entertain the surprise guests which is definitely extra work for them.

एक "ENT"डॉक्टर ने एक गाँव में क्लीनिक खोला।

उसी गाँव के 'झोला छाप डॉक्टर' अपने गाँव के मरीजों को समझा रहे थे ताकि उनका महत्व कम न हो,वो बोले....

"हमारे गाँव में एक नए डॉक्टर आ रहे है। हम तो समझदार थे जोकि 2 साल में ही पढ़ के आ गए।

मगर ये जो नए डाक्टर आए हैं, इन्हें सरकार ने 5 साल पढ़ाया।"

नहीं पढ़ पाए तो सरकार ने फिर 3 साल और पढ़ाया।

फिर भी जब नहीं पढ़ पाए तो सरकार ने कहा..

"तुम खाली 'नाक-कान-गला तक ही पढ़ लो। बाकी तुम्हारे बस का नहीं है।"

स्कूल में टीचर बच्चों को सामान्य ज्ञान का विषय पढ़ा रही थी और पढ़ाने के बाद बारी-बारी से सभी बच्चों से सवाल पूछ रही थी। जब चिंटू की बारी आई...

टीचरः बताओ चिंटू, भारत में इलेक्ट्रिसिटी के तार ऊंचाई पर क्यों लगाए जाते हैं?

चिंटूः वह इसलिए क्योंकि अगर तार नीचे होंगे तो हमारे देश की महिलाएं उस पर कपड़े सुखाने लग जाएंगी।

हवाई जहाज में दुनिया के सभी लोगो को मनचाही शराब दी जायेगी लेकिन भारतीयों को कभी नही..

इसका रीजन जानते हो क्यों..?

हवाई जहाज में 4-5 पैग मारने के बाद अलग-अलग देशों के लोगों की प्रतिक्रियाए..

इंग्लैंड :-I will Sleep Now...

अमरीका :- I Want to Work on Internet...

जर्मनी : -I Will Listen to Music Now...

चीन :-I Will Watch Movies Now...

भारतीय : -हवाई जहाज अब तुम्हारा ये भाई चलाएगा...
