General Knowledge Challenge: Can You Answer This HR Management Question?

Hi all,

The person who is answering can shoot a question. This way, we can continue.

First question: Who is the father of Human Resource Management?

Giggles are the result of the tickling of the funny bone!!! :icon1:

Where is the funny bone located? :confused:

Jayant, as far as I know, there is nothing like a funny bone. I remember reading that the ulnar nerve inside our elbow allows the brain to perceive the feelings in our fourth and fifth fingers. When this nerve is hit against the humerus, which happens when we hit our elbow against something, we get a strange sensation, and that is what we call a funny bone :)

Correct me if I am wrong, please! :icon1:

Where is the question???

Good morning to all,

We sneeze because if any unwanted or infectious or impurities enter through our nostrils. It is a protective mechanism our body has to refuse or reject those impurities and save us from diseases.

Q: What is the current population of India?

As of May 2009, the current population of India is 6,634,236,512.

Why is India called an underdeveloped country?

India's current population is close to 1.12 billion. India is the second largest populated country after China.

China's population (1.32 billion) is going to stagnate soon with older people becoming a significant part of the population and a relatively lower percentage of the population in the younger age group. In 3 to 4 decades, India will approach China's population size. However, for quite some time, India will have a relatively younger working population.

The world population is the total number of humans on Earth at a given time. In September 2007, the world's population is believed to have reached over 6.6 billion.

- China: 1.32 billion (about 20% of the world population)
- India: 1.12 billion (about 17%)
- United States: 300 million (about 4.6%)
- Indonesia: 225 million (about 3.5%)
- Brazil: 186 million (about 2.8%)
- Pakistan: 165 million (about 2.5%)
- Bangladesh: 147 million (about 2.3%)
- Russia: 143 million (about 2.2%)
- Nigeria: 135 million (about 2.1%)
- Japan: 128 million (about 2.0%)
- Mexico: 108 million (about 1.7%)
- Vietnam: 87 million (about 1.3%)
- Philippines: 86 million (about 1.3%)
- Germany: 82 million (about 1.3%)
- Egypt: 75 million (about 1.2%)
- Ethiopia: 75 million (about 1.2%)
- Turkey: 73 million (about 1.2%)

India, being underdeveloped, has been our long-held belief. For centuries, we looked down on merchants as low-caste people. Brahmins were the most respected, followed by Kshatriyas, then merchants, and finally, the lowest level was the Shudras who did manual labor. Hence, in our society, doing work by hand was never a respected job. We looked down on people who engaged in trade. This mentality has cost us dearly, especially in this modern society. However, times are changing. More and more Brahmins are pursuing MBAs, and hard work is gaining the respect it deserves.

Q: What do you know about Stephen Hawking?

I was the one to question first. Please look at the post and answer my question first.
