A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his Customer,
"This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."

The barber puts a five rupee coin in one hand and two one rupee coins(1+1=2) in the other, then calls the boy over and asks,
"Which do you want, son?"

The boy takes the two one rupee coins and leaves.
"What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"

Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of
the ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question?
Why did you take two one rupee coins instead of five rupee coin?"

The boy licked his cone and replied,
"Because THE DAY I TAKE THE FIVE RUPEE COIN, THE GAME WILL BE OVER''

............

 Moral: When you think the other person is dumb, you are making a fool of yourself.

This is what top management in corporate think nowadays. Its so sad that Corporate India is also going the west way! Good Story in any case and one that all managers & HR personnel should take to heart.

When a person thinks that other's around him are fools, he is cheating himself.
