The story of the unemployed entrepreneur..
Friends,
This is a post i gotta see on my fb page.....(the one that might act as a demonstration to one of my previous posts -'what i learnt from movies?')
An unemployed man applies for a janitor at Microsoft.He is interviewed by the HR chief and subjected to a battery of employment tests.
The HR chief tells him : " Congratulations , you got the job.Just give me your e-mail address so that i can send you an employment package and let you know when to start work".
The man is distraught.He has no choice but to tell the HR that he has no computer and therefore no e-mail. The HR tells him that if he does not have an e-mail ,he does not virtually exist and cannot hold a job.
The man leaves in a desperate mood.

He is down to his last $10 and no job in sight.He sees a super market and decides to buy a 10lb box of strawberries.
He starts making door to door calls and selling them by pounds.Within 2 hours ,he manages to double his capital.He repeats the deal 3 times more and goes home with $60 in his pocket.
He comes to see that he can survive this way.He starts everyday in the morning and goes home late by tripling or quadrupling his money.Before long, he buys a wheel barrow so that he could buy and sell more strawberries.After some days he is able buy a truck and eventually becomes the owner of a fleet of delivery trucks with several employees working for him.'He adds other produce items to his delivery.
5 years go by........
The man is now the owner of one of the largest food chains in the US.
He starts thinking about the future of him and his family and decide s to buy a life insurance.He calls an agent and selects a good policy.The agent asks him for an e-mail id to send him the confirmation of the policy.The man tells him he doesn't have an e-mail id."That's incredible",says the agent."you don't have an e-mail id but built this large empire.Can you imagine where you would be with an e-mail id?"
The man briefly thinks and answers "I would be a toilet cleaner at Microsoft".
MORALS of the story:
1.The internet does not solve all the problems in our lives.
What i felt ....
2. If you have the passion to work, you can achieve the heights.But if u sit thinking of your previous attempts that left you unsuccessful and go on feeling for it,you stay back at the same place with no more change,.
