I'm the BOSS!

The boss was complaining in our staff meeting the other day that he wasn't getting any respect.

The next day, he brought a small sign that read: "I'm the Boss!"

He then taped it to his office door.

Later that day when he returned from lunch, he found that someone had taped a note to the sign that said:

"Your wife called, she wants her sign back!"

Something to share:

This joke reminds me of what my colleague, SS, once told us,”Hey! Is our company ruled by the BRA?” Well, well, well, I am sure there are such instances that you might have come across whereby some wives do show their “bossiness” in workplace or office of their husbands for reasons best known to them.

It has been well said that “behind a successful man, it’s his woman”. Sorry ladies, it’s behind, not in front!

In the Bible as written in Colossians 4:18 & Ephesians 5:25, God says,” Wives, submit to your own husbands as is fitting in the Lord.” &”For the husband is head of the wife.” But God also says in Colossians 4:19,”Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them.”

To all husbands, this is what I want to share,” Love your wives as much as they love you.” And, of course, to all wives, “Respect your husbands as much as you are respected.”

Planters are always grateful to their wives for their understanding and supportive attitude towards their so called “occupational hazard” working environment in remote plantations. When their children reach schooling age, most planters move their families to nearby towns and become weekend husbands and fathers.

I remember that my previous company when giving out long service rewards to its executive staff during the annual dinner, my ex-boss had been very generous to give “special reward” to the wives as a token of appreciation. The wise old man knew that without the support of the wives, his long serving executives wouldn’t have stay on for 10, 20 or even 30 years with the company!

THE SOUND OF ECHO & THE ECHO OF LIFE

A man and his son were walking in the forest. Suddenly, the boy tripped and feeling a sharp pain, he screamed, “Ahhhh!” Surprised, he heard a voice coming from the mountain, “Ahhhh!”

Filled with curiosity, he screamed, “Who are you?”, but the only answer he received was, “Who are you?”

This made him angry, so he screamed again, “You are a coward!”, and the voice answered: “You are a coward!”

He looked at his father, asking, “Dad, what is going on?”

“Son,” the man replied, “Pay attention!”
Then he screamed, “I admire you!”
The voice answered: “I admire you!”

The father shouted, “You are wonderful!”, and the voice answered, “You are wonderful!”

Then the father explained, “People call this ECHO, but truly it is LIFE!
Life always gives you back what you give out.
Life is a mirror of your actions.
If you want more love, give more love!
If you want more kindness, give more kindness!
If you want understanding and respect, give understanding and respect!
If you want people to be patient and respectful to you, give patience and respect!
This rule of nature applies to every aspect of our lives.”

Life always gives you back what you give out.

Your life is not a coincidence, but a mirror of your own doings.

Something to share…..

How truly it was spoken that “the echo of life” relates to what we get in life depends on what we have given out.

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” That’s God words in the Bible. It means that the more you give, the more you will receive. That’s God’s blessings on cheerful givers!

There is no short cut to success.

We have to put in all our skills and efforts to score goals.

To finish the race in number one position, the champion has trained harder than the other runners have and he runs the race faster than the number two runner does.

For a job well done, we have to give our best and do our best.

When we think positively, talk positively, listen positively, discuss positively, plan positively, and act positively, we get positive results.

When we see ourselves as “winners,” we become “winners.”
When we see ourselves as “champions,” we shall be the “champions.”

Yes. When you have decided to be successful, there is always a great price that you are willing to pay and you have to do whatever it takes to become a winner or a champion

That’s what we call “THE ECHO OF LIFE.”

OLD DOGS RULE

A wealthy old Gentleman decides to go on a hunting safari in Africa, taking his faithful, elderly Jack Russell terrier named Killer, along for the company.

One day the old Jack Russell starts chasing rabbits and before long,

discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old Jack Russell thinks, 'Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo now!' Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat.

Just as the leopard is about to leap, the old Jack Russell exclaims loudly, 'Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?'

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees.

'Whew!’ says the leopard, 'That was close! That old Jack Russell nearly had me!'

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old Jack Russell sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up.

The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard. The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, 'Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!

Now, the old Jack Russell sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, 'What am I going to do now?', but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old Jack Russell says...

'Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!'

Moral of this story:

Don't mess with the old dogs -- Age and Skill will always overcome Youth! And Treachery!

Bullshit and Brilliance only come with age and experience.

Something to share……..

I bet you have a good laugh. Do share with your friends so that there will be more people laughing after reading this joke.

Don’t try to test the wisdom of old people. Remember that “Wisdom comes from experience and experience comes with age.”

Old men are wise. That’s why they are called “wise old men”. Some preferred to be called “young old men” because they like to be “youthfully challenged.”

A Plantation Manager was asked, “Why there are still some left over rubber seedlings left growing in the ex-nursery?” “I purposed left there to see whether the Assistant takes initiate to remove them,” he answered calmly.

During a slide presentation, one Manager pointed out a spelling error.
“Very good. That proves my point that you guys are listening and one of you can spot the purposely spelt error.” Is it not a wise answer from the Planting Adviser to avoid an embarrassment?
