Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for Microsoft Europe. 5000 candidates assembled in a large room.
One candidate is our ramasamy.
Bill Gates: Thank you for coming.
Those who do not know JAVA may leave.
2000 people leave the room.
ramasamy 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: Candidates who never had experience of managing more
than 100 people may leave.
2000 people leave the room.
ramasamy 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.
Bill Gates: Candidates who do not have management diplomas may
leave.
500 people leave the room.
ramasamy 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.
ramasamy 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 speak Serbo-Croat, so I'd now like to
hear you have a conversation together in that
language.'
Calmly, ramasamy turns to the other candidate and says 'endha ooru?'
The other candidate answers 'salem pakkam'
