NATTER: OFFICE HUMOUR


After 2 years of selfless service, a man realized that he has not been promoted, no transfer, no salary increment and no commendation. So he decided to talk to his HR Manager.

His manager looked at him, smiled and asked him to sit down saying, "My friend you have not worked here for even a single day." The man was surprised to hear this, but the manager went on to explain…..Here’s the conversation between them.

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: 10am to 6pm, that’s 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 i.e 1/3 (one third).

Manager: This is nice of you! What is 1/3rd of 366 days?
Man: 122 (1/3 x 366=122 in 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: Eh….52 Saturdays and hmm….52 Sundays equals to 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: The Company gives you 2 weeks sick leave every year. Now remove that 14 days from the 18 days left. How many days do you have remaining?
Man: Err…4 days.

Manager: Do you work on Labour Day?
Man: No sir….

Manager: Do you come to work on Australia Day?
Man: No …..

Manager: So how many days are left?
Man: 2 days sss...ir.

Manager: Do you come to work on New Years Day?
Man: No sir.

Manager: So how many days are left now?
Man: 1 day sir!

Manager: Do you work on Christmas Day?
Man: Nooo….

Manager: So how many days are left?
Man: Err…..None Sir…..

Manager: So, what are you claiming????
Man:HUH!!!...



Moral - NEVER GO TO HR FOR HELP!!!
HR= HIGH RISK ……not Human Resources.
