Why Bill Gates decides to Sell OFF Microsoft?

A Letter from Banta Punjab

          to Mr.   Bill Gates of Microsoft

Subject: Problems with my new computer

Dear Mr. Bill Gates,

We have bought a computer for our home and we have found some problems, which I want to bring to your notice.

1. There is a button ' start ' but there is no ' stop ' button. We request you to check this.

2. We find there is ' Run ' in the menu. One of my friends clicked ' run ' he ran up to Amritsar ! So, we request you to change that to ' sit ' , so that we can click that by sitting.

3. One doubt is whether any ' re-scooter ' is available in system? I find only 're-cycle ' , but I own a scooter at my home.

4. There is ' Find ' button but it is not working properly. My wife lost the door key and we tried a lot trace the key with this ' find ' button, but was unable to trace. Please rectify this problem.

5. My child learnt ' Microsoft word ' now he wants to learn ' Microsoft
sentence ' , so when you will provide that?

6. I bought computer, CPU, mouse and keyboard, but there is only one icon which shows ' MY Computer ' :when you will provide the remaining items?

7. It is surprising that windows says ' MY Pictures ' but there is not even a single photo of mine. So when will you keep my photo in that.

8. There is ' MICROSOFT OFFICE 'what about ' MICROSOFT HOME ' since I use thePC at home only.

9. You provided ' My Recent Documents ' . When you will provide ' My Past Documents ' ?

10. You provide ' My Network Places ' . For God sake please do not provide ' My Secret Places ' . I do not want to let my wife know where I go after my office  hours.

Regards,

Banta

Last one  to Mr Bill Gates :

Sir, how is it that your name is Gates but u are selling WINDOWS?

Friends18.com New Year Scraps

HOW TO RECRUIT THE RIGHT PERSON ..?

Put about 100 bricks in some

Particular order in a closed
Room with an Open window.. 

Then send 2 or 3 candidates in
The room and close the door.

Leave them alone and come back
After 6 hours and then analyze
The situation.

If they are counting the Bricks.
Put them in the accounts Department.

If they are recounting them.. 
Put them in auditing .
 
If they have messed up the
Whole place with the bricks.
Put them in engineering.

If they are arranging the
Bricks in some strange order.
Put them in planning.

If they are throwing the
Bricks at each other. 
Put them in operations .
 
If they are sleeping.
Put them in security.
 
If they have broken the bricks
Into pieces..
Put them in information
Technology.

If they are sitting idle.
Put them in human resources.

If they say they have tried
Different combinations, yet
Not a brick has
Been moved. Put them in sales.

If they have already left for
The day.
Put them in marketing.

If they are staring out of the
Window.
Put them on strategic
Planning.

And then last but not least.
If they are talking to each
Other and not a single brick

has been moved. 

Congratulate them and put them 
In top management

Know our India !

 

1- 71% or 770 million people are below 35 years of age,  Indians are young.
 

2-  29 million people are born every year, 10 million die per year, population increase 1.8% per year.
 

3- 90% to 94% drop out rate of children (including those who never went to school) between kindergarten and class 10+2.
 

4- India has 970,000 schools, China has 1,800,000.
 

5- 6% are the ones that cross the 10+2 stage, (Educational 'Line of Control') which is our so called educated youth, go in for a regular college degree which may not be very relevant in today's context for the sake of employment generation and National GDP enhancement.
 

6- 72% of all graduates from the 15,600 colleges are Arts graduates. Balance 28% in Science, Commerce, Engineering, I.T., Medical, Law, Management and special subjects.
 

7- India has 372 universities, China has 900 & Japan has 4000.
 

8-     While 95% of the world youth between 15 to 35 years of age learn a vocation, a skill or a trade, with a choice of 2,500 vocational education and training (VET) programs, we in India have only identified about 71 trades, after 58 years of Independence and hardly 2% of the population goes for formal VET training!
 

9-   India has 11,000 ITI's and VET schools, China has 500,000
senior secondary vocational eduacation and training schools.
 

10-  We can get engineers and MBA's in India but no carpenters, plumbers, drivers, repairmen and other skilled personnel as per international standards!
 

11-  Information Technology, Software or I.T. is the only exception, possibly due to 50,000 or more private I.T. training centers spread across the country.
 

12-  I.T. & Software is only 1.5% of the world's GDP. India's present share is about 5%. For rapid economic growth and employment generation we need to concentrate on the balance 95% of the Economy & Enterprise and make it world class.
 

13-  300* million unemployed / employable age* and only 45million have actually registered with employment offices with little or no hope of getting employment (our estimates)*.
 

14-  Of all new employment generated, 1% are Government jobs,2% are in the 'organized sector' and the balance 97% in the'unorganized sector'
 

15- Out of our 430 million workforce, 94% work in the 'unorganized sector' and about 6% in the 'organized sector'.
 

16-  1.7% of the entire population, viz. 18 million people work for the Central & State Government; another 9 million work in the 'private organized sector', a total of 2.6% of the population.
 

17-  All the Labour Laws are made to protect, at any cost, the above
 

2.6% of the Indian population. Article 311 of the Indian constitution needs revision since it over-protects employees of the Government even at a cost to the Nation.
 

18-  While MP's, MLA's and Municipal Councilors and the village Panchayats, can only be elected for a maximum of 5 years, the officials, babus, and government employees enjoy life long benefits of employment, in spite of their performance.
 

19- 600 million illiterate people, based on the international definition of the 3R's (reading, writing and arithmetic, education up to primary level or Class 5th). (our esitimates) as per Goverment of India is 63% literate. China is 93% literate.
 

20- The Indian definition of literacy is based on survey of people“If you can write your name, you are literate”; nobody has seriously ever challenged this definition!
 

21-  260 million live below the Government of India's definition of the Poverty Line of Rs.11(Rural) to Rs 14(Urban) per day! (based on being able to buy enough rice and wheat from the Public Distribution System /Ration Shops,which has food value of 2,200 K calories per day).
 

22-  Nobody has ever challenged this definition of 'Poverty Line'.How can one expect people to live with a few kilos of raw uncooked wheat or rice? As human beings don't we need more? How about one set of clothes to cover our bodies, a set of chappals for our feet, some vegetables, milk and fruit, in our diet? How will we cook without any energy and fuel?
 

23- 450 million* live below the poverty line definition of the World Bank's old definition of @ US$ 1 per day per person, or US$ 365 per year. 700 million* people below the poverty line definition of the World Bank's new definition of @ US$ 2 per
day per person, or US$ 730 per year. (our estimates)*



24-   Average Per Capita of an Indian is about US$ 600 per year per person (1.07 billion people and a GDP of US$ 648 billion). The average earning of an Indian is US$ 1.65 per day.
 

25- India has only 1.72% of the World GDP and has 17% of the world population. Demands are high but buying power is low. Hence we will need to increase our export related activities by 10 times, as the foreign markets are 60 times bigger than the Indian market. Our share of world markets or foreign trade is 0.8%, down from 33% 1,000 years ago, down from 27% when the British landed in India and down from 3% in 1947.
 

26-   Only 5% of Indians understand English, yet most of the websites of the Government of India, State Governments and Public Institutions are in English!
 

27-   While English is a language used in countries which account for about 40% of the world GDP, viz., USA + UK + old British Colonies, yet in India while we talk of Globalization, we are not serious to learn the other languages of the world, eg., Japanese, German etc, unlike the Chinese youth who are doing
otherwise.
 

28-  India is probably at the bottom of the heap, as far as the human development index is concerned such as infant  mortality, child care, malnutrition, women's health, isease, health, clean water, etc.
 

29-   Democracy is, to the people, for the people, by the people. If we  have to succeed, the Citizen has to get involved andparticipate in Governance.
 

30-  Unlike other countries, we have 18 official languages, 4,000 dialects, all the religions of the world, and because of low human and economic development, emphasis on SC, ST, Dalits, caste, religion, sect, minorities, region, ethnic groups, etc.
 

31-  Employment generation is restricted due to existing Policies which do not encourage 'Labour Intensive' enterprises. Relevant Labour Reforms in line with prevailing practices in other countries of Asia are required for a level playing field for Indian organizations.

 

32-   The size of Enterprises cannot be decided by officials in the Central Government.They are decided by technology, process, international market forces and competitive pressures. Reservation for Small Scale Industry, SSI, needs to be scrapped and SME's should be encouraged. SSI's are 7% of the Indian GDP. 99.7% of all organizations in the world are SME's. 90% of the Indian GDP are SME's. We need to understand the meaning of 'E' in SME (small & medium enterprise).
 

33-   As per www.Loksatta.org, about Rs. 2200 crores are spent every day, at the Centre and State level, both on revenue as well as capital account in order to Govern INDIA. To improve Governance we need to insure +95% of Literacy, a large number of active Citizen Groups and maximum use of The Right to Information Act!

      

  Under the above circumstances how can we run an efficient country with Good Governance and Effective Administration?

The secret!

 

            A man and a woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about.

            For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife ' s bedside.

           She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box. When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000. He asked her about the contents.

      "When we were to be married," she said, "my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was to never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll."

          The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him two times in all those years of living and loving. He almost burst with happiness.

            "Honey," he said "that explains the doll, but what about all of this money? Where did it come from?"



              "Oh, that?" she said. "That is the money I made from selling the dolls." : )

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

"Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them - Work, Family, Health, Friends and Spirit and you're keeping all of these in the Air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four Balls - Family, Health, Friends and Spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for it."

WORK EFFICIENTLY DURING OFFICE HOURS AND LEAVE ON TIME.     GIVE THE REQUIRED TIME TO YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS & HAVE PROPER REST!

Happiness depends upon ourselves.!

Happiness depends upon ourselves.

Happiness is not a destination.

It is a method of life.

You cannot always have happiness,

But you can always give happiness.

Happiness is not a matter of events;

It depends upon the tides of the mind.

Everything exists in limited quantity - especially happiness.

Action may not always bring happiness;

But there is no happiness without action.

Happiness is not having what you want.

It is wanting what you have.

Happiness resides not in possessions and not in gold,

The feeling of happiness dwells in the soul.

To be happy, we must not be too

Concerned with others.

Some pursue happiness, others create it.

Happiness is not something

You postpone for the future;

It is something you design

For the present.

Some cause happiness wherever they go;

Others whenever they go.

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy,

They are the charming gardeners

Who make our souls blossom.

Happiness held is the seed.

Happiness shared is the flower.

Happiness and moral duty are inseparably connected.
