"Lazy"<br /><br />A site foreman had ten very lazy men working<br />for him, so one day he decided to trick them<br />into doing some work for a change.<br /><br />"I've got a really easy job today for the laziest<br />one among you," he announced. "Will the<br />laziest man please put his hand up."<br /><br />Nine hands went up.<br /><br />"Why didn't you put your hand up?" he asked<br />the tenth man.<br /><br />"Too much trouble," came the reply.
<br />__________________________________________________<br />"Money and Knowledge"<br /><br />Here's the answer to the question, "why is<br />my salary so low?":<br /><br />Engineers and scientists will never make as<br />much money as business executives. Now a<br />rigorous mathematical proof that explains why<br />this is true:<br /><br />Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.<br />Postulate 2: Time is Money.<br /><br />As every engineer knows,<br /><br /> Work<br />-------- = Power<br /> Time<br /><br />Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money,<br />we have:<br /><br /> Work<br />--------- = Knowledge<br /> Money<br /><br />Solving for Money, we get:<br /><br /> Work<br />----------- = Money<br /> Knowledge<br /><br />Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero,<br />Money approaches infinity regardless of the<br />Work done.<br /><br />Conclusion: The less you know, the more<br />money you make.
