Don't blame me .... I'm only the messenger of true incidences

What I need is an exact list of specific unknown problems we might encounter."

Quote from the Boss: "Teamwork is a lot of people doing what I say."

My sister passed away and her funeral was scheduled for Monday. When I told my Boss, he said she died on purpose so that I would have to miss work on the busiest day of the year. He then asked if we could change her burial to Friday. He said, "That would be better for me."

I will tell you one pearl of Corporate Concern.

A thread bar (Some contraption) was being tested in the machinery. A lot of people were around it as it was a trial run. Under the tension the thing came off and fell heavily to the floor from some 20 ft height. Fortunately no one got hurt. The thing is heavy. We informed the Boss. His first question was if anything happened to the confounded thing.

Kavita ,

You chose well to share - we have some who extend these same pearls to their personal lives on all time basis.

Many thanks for the laugh - fondest regards,

You are so right OSHO, as each quote has the source of it printed below.

Thank you for your clever observation.

I KNOW THAT THE SOURCE IS THERE.
BUT THE ALL THESE LYRICS ARE COMPILED BY KAVITA.
