Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for
Microsoft Europe. 5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One
candidate was Saqlain a Pakistani living in USA .
Bill Gates thanked all the candidates for coming and asking those who do
not know JAVA programming to leave. 2000 people leave the room. Saqlain
says to himself, ‘I do not know JAVA but I have nothing to lose if I
stay. I’ll give it a try’
Bill Gates asked the candidates who never had experience of managing
more than 100 people to leave. 2000 people leave the room… Saqlain
says to himself ’ I never managed anybody by myself but I have nothing
to lose if I stay. What can happen to me?’ So he stays.
Then Bill Gates asked candidates who do not have management diplomas to
leave. 500 people leave the room. Saqlain says to himself, ‘I left
school at 15 but what have I got to lose?’ So he stays in the room.
Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Serbo - Croat
to leave. 498 people leave the room. Saqlain says to himself, ’ I do not
speak one word of Serbo - Croat but what do I have to lose?’ So he stays
and finds himself with one other candidate. Everyone else has gone.
Bill Gates joined them and said ‘Apparently you are the only two
candidates who have all the required qualifications & experience I am
looking for and speak Serbo - Croat, so I’d now like to hear you have a
conversation together in that language.’
and… Calmly, Saqlain turns to the other candidate and says ` Kaisa
hay .. Ustaad?’
The other candidate answers ’ Abbay…salay. … .tu bhee Pakistani
hay??
LOL
