After 2 years of selfless service, a man realized that he has not been promoted, no transfer, no salary increase, no commendation, and that the Company is not doing anything about it. So he decided to walk up to his HR Manager one morning and after exchanging greetings, he told his HR Manager his observation. The boss looked at him, laughed, and asked him to sit down saying:
"My friend, you have not worked here for even one day."
The man was surprised to hear this, but the manager went on to explain.
Manager: How many days are there in a year?
Man: 365 days and sometimes 366.
Manager: How many hours make up a day?
Man: 24 hours.
Manager: How long do you work in a day?
Man: 8 am to 4 pm, i.e., 8 hours a day.
Manager: So, what fraction of the day do you work in hours?
Man: (He did some arithmetic and said 8/24 hours, i.e., 1/3 (one third)).
Manager: That is nice of you! What is one-third of 366 days?
Man: 122 (1/3 × 366 = 122 days).
Manager: Do you come to work on weekends?
Man: No, sir.
Manager: How many days are there in a year that are weekends?
Man: 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals 104 days.
Manager: Thanks for that. If you remove 104 days from 122 days, how many days do you now have?
Man: 18 days.
Manager: OK! I do give you 2 weeks sick leave every year. Now remove those 14 days from the 18 days left. How many days do you have remaining?
Man: 4 days.
Manager: Do you work on New Year's Day?
Man: No, sir!
Manager: Do you come to work on Worker's Day?
Man: No, sir!
Manager: So how many days are left?
Man: 2 days, sir!
Manager: Do you come to work on the (National holiday)?
Man: No, sir!
Manager: So how many days are left?
Man: 1 day, sir!
Manager: Do you work on Christmas Day?
Man: No, sir!
Manager: So how many days are left?
Man: None, sir!
Manager: So, what are you claiming?
Man: I have understood, Sir. I did not realize that I was stealing Company money all these days.
