Ni Cotine Code

-

Recently, I was asked to draft a mail, inviting all my team members for a birthday bash at the workplace...Incidentally, it so happened that it was scheduled on the 'anti-tobacco' day...and I had no choice, other than writing this....but believe me, it was a huge hit !!

Hi All,
PLEASE quit smoking now ! The next time you MAKE an attempt to smoke, buy YOURSELF nicotine replacements - Several Indian makes are AVAILABLE in the market, at afFORdable prices these days. The world sees THE BIRTH of a new tobacco consumer every DAY. It all starts in the name of fun and CELEBRATIONS initially. An addict, seldom realises that the death stick which is TO BE HELD between the lips, is going to baseball his/her life AT every run. We are soon to enter into THE THIRD decade of the 'Anti-tobacco' campaign, since it's inception, on May 31st 1988. Many debates have been on FLOOR IN several parliments across the globe regarding the ban on tobacco. Probably some kind of a Section, say 'C', should be introduced by the income tax WING AT the onset of the financial year 2006 - 2007, which gives a tax exemption for non-smokers ! Ladies and gentlemen, every time you throw a cigrette stub, please bear in mind that you are also throwing 5 PM (precious minutes) from your life. Kick your habit, TODAY !!

What you're about to read is an actual resignation note (unedited version) that my manager-friend received from one of his team members. "Hello, I will not cum in office from today onwords.I fell down in the road last friday while returning from the office near madivala flyover. I right leg and right shoulder got little damage. As per the doctor advise I have to take 30 to 45 days rest to recovar campletly. Since I going to Australia far MBA in feb last weak I Can't join the job again after my recovary far shart period. So I decided to dis-continue my work from today onwords. I really sorry far the inconvenience caused to resigning my job. Tanks for the great suport and copration from u r compayny. I yum resign." Atleast, 'I will not cum in office' was pardonable to a certain extent, since it gave my friend a hearty laugh. But, 'I yum resign' was the last straw to break the camel's back. After reading that last sentence, my friend felt like

It is beyond my doubt that whoever wrote the following 'gems', must've been helplessly inebriated, or had an extremely important errand to run, or lost control over one's bladder, or skipped at least one square meal before he/she actually wrote it. I mostly think it must've been one of those chappies working at the restaurant, for I believe chappies have an innate tendency to shut their minds off and drop their jaws open instead, when they encounter delicious, lip-smacking and mouth-watering food -- Take me, for instance -- Show me a plateful of echt Bhel-Poori and a woman-full of zeal and oomph -- you can never buy me for the latter! Anyway, coming back, thanks to Sarvajnya for capturing and sharing these precious writings, directly from the buffet table of a desi restaurant in Amreeka , whose name I don't wish to disclose! I don't know if the cuisine in this restaurant hydrated the eaters' tongues, but I can tell for sure that the following caption

Token of appreciation

It was more than a ritual in my friend's ex-company to offer on-the-spot gratuities (really hefty ones) to their employees who made outstanding contributions to their respective projects. One such competitive employee, in spite of having exhibited his profound skills, was neither apprised in a just manner nor given the due credits. By due credits, I mean the impromptu gratuities I was talking about in the first line -- I believe, these were termed "Bravo awards". The frustrated employee, who was no longer able to endure the injustice thrown upon him, once poured out his indignant feelings to his immediate supervisor, stating that the supervisor better honour him with at least a "Bravo". The supervisor, who was a new hire himself, did not know what "Bravo" meant; neither the true meaning of the word nor the company's lingo. Obviously, the employee meant the latter. Ignorant of these facts, the rookie searched for the "synonym" of the wo
