Project Manager in IT Firm

The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a Rs 10,000 bet. The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money.

Many people like weight-lifters, wrestlers, body builders, etc had tried over time, but nobody could do it. One day this scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a safari suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, “I’d like to try the bet.” After the laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man.

But the crowd’s laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and 5-6 drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the Rs 10,000, and asked the little man, “What do you do for a living?

Are you a weight-lifter, or what?”

“No,” replied the man.

“I work as a project manager in a software company !! “

Orkut Scrap notices!

We all love receiving scraps, but constantly checking back to your scrapbook page can be tedious. How many of us have our scrapbook page open and are clicking refresh on it constantly!

With scrap notices you can be on any orkut page and find out that you have received a scrap – that very minute. You could be browsing your friend’s photos, and find out “hey! I just got a new scrap.” Then you can click on the “Scrapbook” link to reply on the spot. This way you’ll be free to explore all of orkut, comforted in the knowledge that when you have received a new scrap, you’ll know about it that moment.

We’ll be rolling this feature out over the new few days for all users, but If you really prefer clicking the refresh button all day long, you can go to settings to disable to the feature.

Tears …

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in bed.
She goes downstairs to look for him.
She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him.
He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall.
She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.

” What’s the matter, dear?” she whispers as she steps into the room.
“Why are you down here at this time of night?”
The husband looks up from his coffee,
“Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 18?” he asks solemnly.
“Yes I do” she replies.

The husband pauses; the words were not coming easily.
“Do you remember when your father caught us in the garden?”
“Yes! I remember” said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.
The husband continued.
“Do you remember when he showed the shotgun in my face and said,
‘Either you marry my daughter, or I’ll send you to jail for 20 years?”
“I remember that too” she replied softly. He wiped another tear from his cheek and said,

“I would have been released today!”

Mathematician @ Its Best

As an experiment, an engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician are placed in separate rooms and left with a can of food, but no can opener.
A day later, the rooms are opened, one-by-one.
In the first room, the engineer is snoring, with a battered, opened and emptied can. When asked, he explains that when he got hungry, he beat the can to its failure point.
In the second room, the physicist is seen mouthing equations, with a can popped open beside him. When asked, he explains that when he got hungry, he examined the stress points of the can, applied pressure, and “pop!”
In the third room, the mathematician is found sweating, and mumbling to himself, “Assume the can is open, assume the can is open…”

College vs Corporate Life

Parents used to give us Rs. 20/- per month,
in that we were not only able to eat stomachs fill, but we were able to save too!!!
Now we earn a sum of 20K, we have no idea where it goes, let alone saving it!!
Which’s better, the former or the latter???

6 subjects per year, 6 different teachers!
One project since we joined and just one manager!!
Which’s better, the former or the latter???

We used to make notes; we used to study for ranks!!
Now we scan thru our mails; we struggle for our ratings!!!
Which’s better, the former or the latter???

We have still not forgotten the people in the next section!!!
Now we don’t even know who sits in the next cubicle!!!
Which’s better, the former or the latter???

After getting back from a tiring play, we used to do our home work!!
Now who knows/cares about home; all we do is just work!!!
Which’s better, the former or the latter???

We knew our history and economics!!
Now let alone reading books, we don’t even catch up with the daily news!!!
Which’s better, the former or the latter???

We had an aim in life; behind our backs we had our teachers!!
Now we have no idea about the future nor do we find any one who would tell us anything!!!

So Which’s better, the former or the latter???

Gem of an Article – Passion is all that you need

It was probably the April of 1974. Bangalore was getting warm and
gulmohars were blooming at the IISc campus. I was the only girl in my
postgraduate department and was staying at the ladies’ hostel. Other girls
were pursuing research in different departments of Science.

I was looking forward to going abroad to complete a doctorate in computer
science. I had been offered scholarships from Universities in the US. I
had not thought of taking up a job in India.

One day, while on the way to my hostel from our lecture-hall complex, I
saw an advertisement on the notice board. It was a standard
job-requirement notice from the famous automobile company Telco (now Tata
Motors). It stated that the company required young, bright engineers,
hardworking and with an excellent academic background, etc.

At the bottom was a small line: “Lady candidates need not apply.”

I read it and was very upset. For the first time in my life I was up
against gender discrimination.

Letter to God

Letter 1

Dear God,
I have been a very good boy this year and I would like a bike for my birthday.
I want a red one.
Your friend,

Bobby

Bobby knew that this wasn’t true. He had not been a very good boy this year,
So he tore up the letter and started over.

Letter 2

Dear God,
This is your friend Bobby. I have been a good boy this year and I would like
A red bike for my birthday. Thank you.
Your friend,

Bobby

Bobby knew that this wasn’t true either. So, he tore up the letter and started again.

Letter 3

Dear God,
I have been an OK boy this year. I still would really like a bike for my birthday.
Bobby
Bobby knew he could not send this letter to God either. So, Bobby wrote a fourth letter.

Letter 4

God,
I know I haven’t been a good boy this year. I am very sorry.
I will be a good boy if you just send me a bike for my birthday.
Please! Thank you,

Bobby

Bobby knew, even if it was true, this letter was not going to get him a bike.
Now, Bobby was very upset. He went downstairs and told his mom that he wanted to go to church.
Bobby’s mother thought her plan had worked, as Bobby looked very sad.
Just be home in time for dinner, Bobby’s mother told him.
Bobby walked down the street to the church on the corner.
Little Bobby went into the church and up to the altar.
He looked around to see if anyone was there.
Bobby bent down and picked up a statue of the Mary.
He slipped the statue under his shirt and ran out of the church, down the street, into the house, and up to his room.
He shut the door to his room and sat down with a piece of paper and a pen.
Bobby began to write his letter to God

Letter 5

God,
I’VE KIDNAPPED YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN, SEND THE BIKE
