Why Salary is not increased?

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 one morning and



after exchanging greetings, he told h is HR



Manager his observation.The boss looked



at him, laughed and asked him to sit down



saying;





Myfriend, you have not worked here for

even one day.


The man was surprised to hear this, but

the manager went on to explain.


Manager:- How many days are there in a


year?

Man:- 365 days and some times 366

Manager:- how many hours make up a day?




Man:- 24 hours



Manager:- How long do you work in a day?




Man:- 8am to 4pm. i.e. 8 hours a day.




Manager:- So, what fraction of the day do



you work in hours ?


Man:- (He did some arithmetic and said



8/24 hours i.e. 1/3(one third)

Manager:- That is nice of you! What is one-



third of 366 days?




Man:- 122 (1/3x366 = 122 in days)

Manager:- Do you come to work on



weekends?




Man:- No sir

Manager:- How many days are there in a



year that are weekends?




Man:- 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals



to 104 days



Manager:- Thanks for that. If you remove

104 days from 122 days, how many days do

you now have?


Man:- 18 days.

Manager:- OK! I do give you 2 weeks sick

leave every year. Now remove that14 days

from the 18 days left. How many days do

you have remaining?


Man:- 4 days




Manager:- Do you work on New Year day?

Man:- No sir!

Manager:- Do you come to work on workers

day?

Man:- No sir!

Manager:- So how many days are left?

Man:- 2 days sir!

Manager:- So how many days are left?

Man:- 1 day sir!

Manager:- Do you work on Christmas day?

Man:- No sir!

Manager:- So how many days are left?

Man:- None sir!

Manager:- So, what are you claiming?

Man:- I have understood, Sir. I did not
