A Funny Incident In An Office

A FUNNY INCIDENT

A friend of mine is a small scale industrialist and is a Managing Director of his business. He has quite a few accountants and other clerks to run his business, and one of his assistants was a follower of Jainism.

It so happened that on a particularly tiring day of work when he could not apply his mind to the job in a meticulous manner due to being preoccupied with some personal concerns, the assistant approached this friend of mine for a seemingly small error and said:

“Ek chotti si galati hogaya saab! Is totalling mein maine aisa mistake kiya!”

My friend excused the error and said “Try and be a bit more careful!”

About an hour later the assistant again came to my friend and pleaded:

“Ek aur chotti si galati hogaya saab! Humne is letter ko Aisa likh ke bejdiya!”

My friend said “It’s o.k.! Like I said earlier, be a bit more careful!”

When the assistant came to my friend later in the day for the third time saying:

“Arre Saab! Ek chotti si galati aur hogaya! Humne …”

My friend interrupted him and said:

“Suno Mere Bhai! If the sculptor who carved out the Gomateshwara sculpture instead of carving the sex organ hanging down, had carved it erect and perpendicular to the body and said ‘Chotti si galati hogaya!’ would you keep quiet?”

He further said “Aisi chotti si galatiyan mat kiya karo!!”
