A Jobless man applied for the position of ‘office boy’ at
Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him then watched him
cleaning the floor as a test.

‘ You are employed ‘ he said. Give me your e-mail address
and I ‘ ll send you the application to fill in, as well as
date when you may start.

The man replied ‘ But I don ‘ t have a computer, neither an
email ‘ .

‘ I ‘ m sorry ‘ , said the HR manager. If you don ‘ t have
an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn ‘ t
exist, cannot have the job. ‘

The man left with no hope at all. He didn ‘ t know what to
do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to
the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate.
He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round.. In less
than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He
repeated the operation three times, and returned home with
$60.

The man realized that he can survive by this way, and
started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his
money doubled or tripled everyday.

Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his
own fleet of delivery vehicles.

5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers
in the US He started to plan his family ‘ s future, and
decided to have a life insurance.

He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.
When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his
email. The man replied, ‘ I don ‘ t have an email. ‘
The broker answered curiously, ‘ You don ‘ t have an email,
and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine
what you could have been if you had an e mail?!! ‘ The man
thought for a while and replied, ‘ Yes, I ‘ d be an office
boy at Microsoft! ‘
