Yet another gem from u PP ma'm! :thumbsup: :D
I know u wudn't hav liked to be told this but I feel tat sumone like u shud've taken up a career as a school teacher! U seem like the right person for tat kind of job........the no. of young minds u wud've actually nurtured, unlike today's scenario where um......well, a teacher = an exam guide book, as one fellow hubber had pointed out! :(
An unemployed man is desperate to support his family of a wife and three kids. He applies for a janitor's job at a large firm and easily passes an aptitude test.
The human resources manager tells him, "You will be hired at
minimum wage of $5.35 an hour. Let me have your e-mail address so that we can get you in the loop. Our system will automatically e-mail you all the forms and advise you when to start and where to report on your first day."
Taken back, the man protests that he is poor and has neither a
computer nor an e-mail address. To this the manager replies, "You must understand that to a company like ours that means that you virtually do not exist. Without an email address you can hardly expect to be employed by a high-tech firm. Good day."
Stunned, the man leaves. Not knowing where to turn and having only $10 in his wallet, he walks past a farmers' market and sees a stand selling 25 lb. crates of beautiful red tomatoes. He buys a crate, carries it to a busy
corner and displays the tomatoes. In less than 2 hours he sells all the tomatoes and makes 100% profit.
Repeating the process several more times that day, he ends up with almost $100 and arrives home that night with several bags of
groceries for his family.
During the night he decides to repeat the tomato business the next day.
By the end of the week he is getting up early every day and working into the night. He multiplies his profits quickly. Early in
the second week he acquires a cart to transport several boxes of tomatoes at a time, but before a month is up he sells the cart to
buy a broken-down pickup truck.
At the end of a year he owns three old trucks. His two sons have
left their neighborhood gangs to help him with the tomato business, his wife is buying the tomatoes, and his daughter is taking night courses at the community college so she can keep books for him.
By the end of the second year he has a dozen very nice used trucks and employs fifteen previously unemployed people, all selling tomatoes. He continues to work hard.
Time passes and at the end of the fifth year he owns a fleet of
nice trucks and a warehouse that his wife supervises, plus two
tomato farms that the boys manage. The tomato company's payroll has put hundreds of homeless and jobless people to work. His daughter reports that the business grossed a million dollars.
Planning for the future, he decides to buy some life insurance.
Consulting with an insurance adviser, he picks an insurance plan to fit his new circumstances. Then the adviser asks him for his e-mail address in order to send the final documents electronically.
When the man replies that he doesn't have time to mess with a
computer and has no e-mail address, the insurance man is stunned, "What, you don't have e-mail? No computer? No Internet? Just think where you would be today if you'd had all of that five years ago!"
"Ha!" snorts the man. "If I'd had e-mail five years ago I would be sweeping floors at Microsoft and making $5.35 an hour.
"Which brings us to the moral of the story: Since you got this story
by e-mail, you're probably closer to being a janitor than a
millionaire. :P
Lambretta,I am not sure I would have relished teacher's job in the present scenario! I still believe 'charity begins at home': if each mother takes care of her children's healthy growth the whole society will flourish.

SAVE INDIA !!!
U CAN MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS.
Hi friends
Please spare a couple of minutes here........for the sake of India... our country.
I got this article from one of my friend, but it's true, I can see this from day to day life,
Small example,
Before 5 months 1 CAN $ = IND Rs 32
After 5 months. Now it is 1 CAN $ = IND Rs 37
I don't think so, Canadian Economy is booming, but Indian Economy is Going Down ..
Our Economy is in ur hands
Do u know this, INDIAN economy is in a crisis - As you are all aware ! INDIA like many other ASIAN countries, INDIA is undergoing a severe economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation. More than 30000 crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages...etc which are grown, produced and consumed here .
A cold drink that costs only 70/80 paise to produce is sold for NINE rupees, and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy.
Did you know that " COCA COLA " and " SPRITE " belong to the same multinational company, "COCA COLA " ?
On one hand coke advertisements say that ' JO CHAHO HOJAYE, COCACOLA ENJOY'
(i.e . whatever the hell, let it happen, you drink coke) ; and on the other hand,
Sprite says that 'BHUJAO ONLY PYAS, BAKI ALL BAKWAS'
(i.e. drinks can just quench thirst all other claims are false).
What can you do ?
You can consider some of the better alternatives to aerated drinks.
For that matter PEPSI is also the same
You can drink LEMON JUICE, FRESH FRUIT JUICES, CHILLED LASSI (SWEET OR SOUR), BUTTER MILK, COCONUT WATER, JALJEERA, ENERJEE, MASALA MILK..........
Everyone deserves a healthy drink, including you!
Over and abo! ve all this, economic sanctions have been imposed on us. We have nothing against
Multinational companies, but to protect ou! r own interests we request everybody to use
INDIAN products only for next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this,
the rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future.
What you can do about it ?
1. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.
2. ENROLL as many people as possible for this cause.
Each individual should become a leader for this awareness.
This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis.
You don't need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate product.
All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.

Do you know that the cotton is produced in the INDIAN villages, threads are produced in the INDIAN towns, dresses are stitched in INDIAN cities and clothes are purchased by INDIAN customers?
But it is BRANDED as MANUFACTURED BY A MULTINATIONAL COMPANY for which we
LOSE PRECIOUS FOREIGN EXCHANGE.
THE POINT TO NOTE: THE MONEY IS GOING TO SOME DEVELOPEDCOUNTRIES . It is TRUE.
PLEASE go to the remote areas of cities AND SEE FOR YOURSELF THE TRUTH .
Thousands of poor innocent INDIANS are working as tailors for stitching the
WORLD'S POPULAR READYMADE CLOTHES( ALAN PAINE, PETER ENGLAND ETC.....), . BUT THEY ARE PAID A POOR AMOUNT.
THIS IS HAPPENING BECUSE OF OUR IGNORANCE. INDIAIS ONE OF THE MAJOR TEXTILE EXPORTER IN THE WORLD.
OUR TAILORS ARE FAMOUS EVEN IN COUNTRIES LIKE US AND UK.
THEN WHY SHOULD WE BLINDLY GIVE IN TO THE ATTRACTION OF FOREIGN BRANDS?
PLEASE THINK ABOUT IT.
Every INDIAN product you buy makes a big difference. It saves INDIA .
Let us take a firm decision today.
BUY INDIAN TO BE INDIAN we are not against of foreign products.
WE ARE NOT ANTI-MULTINATIONAL.
WE ARE TRYING TO SAVE OUR NATION.
EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE FOR A REAL FREEDOM.
WE ACHIEVED OUR INDEPENDENCE AFTER LOSING MANY LIVES.
THEYDIED PAINFULLY TO ENSURE THAT WE LIVE PEACEFULLY . THE CURRENT TREND IS VERY THREATENING.
MULTINATIONALS CALL IT GLOBALISATION OF INDIAN ECONOMY. FOR INDIANS LIKE YOU AND ME IT IS RECOLONISATION OF INDIA.
THE COLONIST'S LEFT INDIA THEN. BUT THIS TIME THEY WILL MAKE SURE THEY DON'T MAKE ANY MISTAKES.
WHO WOULD LIKE TO LET A"GOOSE THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS" SLIP AWAY.
PLEASE REMEMBER : POLITICAL FREEDOM IS USELESS WITHOUT ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE.
RUSSIA , S.KOREA, MEXICO........THE LIST IS VERY LONG!!
LET US LEARN FROM THEIR EXPERIENCE AND FROM OUR HISTORY.
LET US DO THE DUTY OF EVERY TRUE INDIAN.
FINALLY : IT'S OBVIOUS THAT U CAN'T GIVE UP ALL OF THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE,
SO GIVE UP ATLEAST ONE ITEM TO FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY.LITTLE DROPS MAKE A GREAT OCEAN.
Jai Hind...............
PP ma'm,
I rem. reading the same fwd. in my old school group from a freind last yr........and yes it is really pitiable!
I never found Coke/Pepsi agreeable neways & I used to take only Sprite.......but gave up even tat last year! So I guess tat makes it one item atleast from my side! :D
Tat MNCs r making huge profits by getting max. work out of our ppl. at a cheap rate is no secret! But the Indian govt. doesn't seem to care & is encouraging them!
Here in AP, the previous CM Chandrababu Naidu had helped setting up of MNCs in AP (mostly Hyd.), taking enormous loans from World Bank, during his govt.'s tenure, thus resulting in loss/closure of industries in AP & State govt. being in debt of WB! :(
For this reason, he attempted various 'solutions' like privatising all govt. owned corporations so tat the income made from public money wud serve as repayment to World Bank!
Heart Determines
It's ok to kiss a fool,
It's ok to let a fool kiss you,
but never ever let a kiss fool you....
It's still best to wait for the one you want
than settle for the one available.
Best to wait for the one you love
than settle for one who's around.
Best to wait for the right one.
Life is short to waste on the wrong person....
It is better to meet the person who will truly love you later,
than meet someone now who promises to love
you but sooner or later leave you forever.....
Never try to impress someone to make himher fall in love with you
If you do, you will be expected to keep the standard for the rest of your life...
Fate determines who comes into our lives. The heart determines who stays...

The teacher told him, this time you bring back a corn.... you look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best
one you get.... this is marriage
Now you ve got me confused :!:
