Here's the wonderful story:
Please do spend some time to read this.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One day, a Scientist came to his boss and told him, "Sir, I have promise to my children that I will take them to the
exhibition going on the township. So I want to leave the office at 5.30 pm" His boss replied, "Ok, you are permitted to leave the office early today".
The scientist started working. As usual he got involved to such an extent that he looked at his watch when he felt he was close to completion. The time was 8.30 pm.
Suddenly he remembered of the promise he had given to his children. He looked for his boss, but he was not there. Having told him in the morning itself, he closed everything and left for home.
Deep within himself, he was feeling guilty for having disappointed his children. when he reached home, children were not there. The situation was explosive; ant talk would boomerang on him.
His wife asked him, "would you like to have coffee or shall I straight away serve dinner if you are hungry?" The man replied,
"If you would like to have coffee, I too will have but what about children?" Wife replied, "You don't know? Your manager came at 5.15 pm and has taken the children to the exhibition".
What had really happenend was this: The boss who granted him permission observed him working seriosly at 5.00 pm. He thought to himself, this person will not leave the work, but if he has promised his children, then they should enjoy the visit to exhibition. So he took the lead in taking them to exhibition.
The boss does not have to do it every time. But once it is done, loyalty is established. That is why all the scientists at Thumba continued to work under their boss even though the stress was tremendous. Can you hazard a guess as to who the boss was????????????

This is a excellent story for hard-working person & also brilliant character the boss of scientist who is Dr,A.P.J Abdul Kalam.
Very Nice..
But for my point of view the time is always night to do what is writing. Time is like a handful of sand the tiger you grasp it, the faster it runs through your finger.
Thank You.
