HUMOUR IN MANAGEMENT Once, an employee wanted half-day casual leave to attend the funeral of one of his relatives. He wrote in his application, “Since I have to go to the cremation ground. I may not return, kindly grant me half-day casual leave”. An employee applied for leave saying “Since I have to go to my village to sell my land alongwith my wife, please sanction one weeks’ leave from_____to______” An employee applied for leave stating, “Since I have to accompany my wife to the hospital to give birth to a child, I should be granted leave for one day”. While filling up the column for reason for leave, an employee stated ”Sick of my wife”. Once an officer annoyed with the erratic working of an employee asked “Why didn’t you take leave this year?” “Sir”, replied the employee “I needed some rest”. While applying frequently for casual leave, by giving the reasons that his uncle, aunt or friend etc. had died. Once the competent authority became furious and looking at his application shouted, “Better you take one month’s leave and finish with all of them”. Employee: “If you fire me who will fill my vacancy”. Employers: ”Trust me, you won’t be leaving a vacancy”. You say you want a job in this office? Well, what can you do?” “Nothing” “I’m sorry, but those high-salaried positions were taken long ago”. Foreman: ”has the mechanic told you what to do?” Apprentice:” Yes Sir, he told me to wake him up when I hear your coming”. Employee Employer * Employer: Your increment is confidential. Please don’t discuss with anyone. Employees: Don’t worry sir, I’m as ashamed of it as you.
