Build Your House Right 1970-01-01 00:59:59 An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer-Contractor of his plans to leave the house-building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife, enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by. The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career.When the carpenter finished his work the employer came to inspect the house. He handed the front-door key to the carpenter.

Clever Question 1970-01-01 00:59:59 A bunch of smart MBA students about to give their final paper just got nicely drunk & did not study. Next day morning remorse filled them & they thought of a brilliant idea of fooling their dean to cover their absence. They painted their hands & dresses with oil & grease &, with disheveled hair, they burst in the examination hall where the paper was going on. They painted a sob story of how their car developed a flat tyre the previous night on a desolate road & how they didn't get any help & had to rough out back to the campus which they reached just a few minutes earlier. They pleaded for a re-exam after a few days. The dean said he was a reasonable man & he would give the reexam after three days. The boys worked hard for the three days & went to the hall confidently. The dean explained that since this was an extraordinary request, the four students will give the examination from four different halls, the question paper being the same. The question paper was given to the four halls. Read more:Clever

The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure but how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom. Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed! A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars. "What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!" So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill." The man sent a bill that read: Tapping with a hammer...... $2.00Knowing where t Read more:doing

Innocent or Guilty 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Once upon a time there was a very mean king who ruled his kingdom with an iron fist. One day he received some very distressing news a commoner was in love with his daughter, the princess. The next day he received even more distressing news--the princess was also in love with the commoner. The king wanted to put a stop to this. He knew that the only way he could permanently end this relationship was to execute the commoner. So he charged the commoner with a crime that he did not commit. The commoner pled innocent. As was the custom in this kingdom, fate would determine guilt or innocence. The next day the king and the commoner were in the town's square as hundreds of people looked on. The king held out two envelopes. Inside one was a card that read "innocent." Inside the other was a card with the word "guilty." The commoner had to choose one. He was a very wise young man and he knew that the king wanted to execute him no matter what. So he knew that the king had the word "gu Read more:Innocent
