A man joined a big Multi National Company as a trainee.
On his first day, he dialed the kitchen and shouted into the phone:
"Get me a cup of coffee, quickly!"
The voice from the other side responded: "You fool, you've dialed the wrong
extension! Do you know who you're talking to ?"
"No" replied the trainee.
"It's the Managing Director of the company, "you idiot!"
The trainee shouted back: "And do you know who YOU are talking to,you IDIOT
?"
"No!" replied the Managing Director angrily.
"Thank God!" replied the trainee and put down the phone.

Monkey with C++
A tourist walked into a pet shop and was looking at
the animals on display.
While he was there, another customer walked in and
said to the shopkeeper,
"I'll have a C monkey please."
The shopkeeper nodded, went over to a cage at the
side of the shop and
took out a monkey.
He fit a collar and leash, handed it to the
customer, saying, that'll
be $5000." The customer paid and walked out with his
monkey.
Startled, the tourist went over to the shopkeeper
and said,
"That was a very expensive monkey. Why did it cost
so much?"
The shopkeeper answered,
"Ah, that monkey can program in C very fast, tight
code, no bugs, well
worth the money."
The tourist looked at the monkey in another cage.
"That one's even
more expensive! $10,000!
What does it do?"
"Oh, that one's a C++ monkey;
it can manage object-oriented programming, Visual
C++, even some Java.
All the really useful stuff," said the shopkeeper.
The tourist looked around for a little longer and
saw a third monkey
in a cage of its own.
The price tag around its neck read $50,000.
He gasped to the shopkeeper, "That one costs more
than all the other
put together! What on earth does it do?" T he
shopkeeper replied,
"Well, I haven't actually seen it doing anything,
but the other
monkeys call him the project manager."
