As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something else stirring inside the
doghouse. Slowly another little ball appeared; this One noticeably smaller. Down the ramp it slid.
Then in a somewhat awkward manner the little pup began hobbling toward the others, doing its
best to catch up....
“I want that one,” the little boy said, pointing to the runt.
The farmer knelt down at the boy's side and said, “Son, you don’t want that
puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs
would.”
With that the little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down, and
began rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing so he revealed a steel
brace running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made
shoe. Looking back up at the farmer, he said, “You see sir, I don’t run too well myself, and he will
need someone who understands.”
The world is full of people who need someone who understands.
OFFFICE BOY
A jobless man applied for the position of “office boy” at a very big firm.
The HR manager interviewed him, then a test: clean the floor. “You are hired” he said, give me
your email address, and I’ll send you the application to fill, as well as when you will start.
The man replied “I don’t have a computer, neither an email.”
I’m sorry, said the HR manager, if you don’t have an email that means you do not exist. And who
doesn’t exist, cannot have the job. The man left with no hope at all. He didn’t know what to do,
with only $10 US in his pocket.
He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10 KG tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes
in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the
operation 3 times, and returned home with $60 US. The man realized that he can survive by this
way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubles or triples every
day. Shortly later, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.
5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US. He started to plan his family’s
future, and decided to have a life insurance.
He called an insurance broker, and chooses a protection plan. When the conversation was
concluded, the broker asked him his email. The man replied: “I don’t have an email.” The broker
replied curiously, you don’t have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an
empire. Do you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?
The man thought for a while, and replied: an office boy!
The moral of this story:
1: Internet is not the solution to your life.
2: If you don’t have internet and you work hard you can be a millionaire.
3: If you received this message by email, you are closer to be an office boy, rather than a
MILLIONAIRE.
