------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a hot meeting at the office conference hall. All the people from the department had been called. The boss was looking much tensed.The mood was so bad.

My friend asked me -"Hey, what is this meeting all about?
I told - May be they will decide on when to have the next meeting.
People around smiled at each other.

Then the boss started talking.It was about the recent attrition rate that was so high. Around 10 people had put in their papers. All experienced guys. It was quarter end and so work was huge.
If we do not complete the work on time, we need to bepaying heavy penalty said the boss.

The boss turned to the manager and told
"Hey - take how much ever resources you want. Recruit or take them from other departments. Butcomplete the work in another 25 days. Take people and complete it man.

To this the sweet manager replied "Sir! Give me one wife and nine months andI shall show you results. Don't give me nine wives and one month. I cannot do anything."

Everyone looked at him blank.The boss was not prepared for this answer.

We looked at the manager and thought "What an Awesome Reply man!"
