Guys, read this story with calmness, think about all the wisdom in it, and today, you will be wiser than you were yesterday.
After 2 years of selfless service, a man realized that he has not been promoted, no transfer, no salary increase no commendation and that the Company is not doing any thing about it.
So he decided to walk up to His HR Manager (Human Resources Manager) one morning and after exchanging greetings, he told his HR Manager his observation. HR Manager looked at him, laughed and asked him to sit down saying. My friend, you have not worked here for even one day.
