All salaried people must read this

After 4 years of selfless service, I realized that I had not been promoted, no salary increment, no commendation.
So I decided to walk up to my HR Manager. The manager looked at me, smiled and asked me to sit down saying: "My friend you have not worked here for even a single day!"

I was shocked to hear this, but the manager went on to explain. And here's the conversation that took place:

Manager: How many days are there in a year?

Me: 365 days and sometimes 366.

Manager: Do you come to work on weekends?

Me: No sir.

Manager: How many days are there in a year that are weekends?

Me: 52 Saturdays and 52 Sundays equals to 104 days.

Manager: Thanks for that. If u remove 104 days from 366 days. how many days
do you now have?

Me: 262 days

Manager: How many hours make up a day?

Me: 24 Hours.

Manager: How long do you work in a day?

Me: 10am to 6pm
(i.e. 8 hours a day.)

Manager: So, what fraction of the day do you work in hours?

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

Manager: This is nice of you! what is 1/3rd of 262 days?

Me: 87
(1/3 x 262 = 87days)

Manager: I do give you 2 weeks sick leave, 15 days casual leave, 5 days optional leave, 30 days earned leave every year. Now remove that 64 days from the 87 days left. How many days do u have remaining?

Me: 23 days.

Manager: Do you work on festivals ? (20 days)

Me: No Sir!

Manager: Do you work on Republic Day?

Me: No sir!

Manager: Do you come to work on Independence Day?

Me: No sir!

Manager: So how many days are left?

Me: 1 day sir!

Manager: Do you come to work on New Year's Day..?

Me: No sir..!!

Manager: So how many days are left?

Me: None Sir!

Manager: So what are you claiming?

Me: I have understood, Sir. I did not realise that I was stealing company
money all these days.

Moral - NEVER GO TO HR FOR HELP!!!

(HR= HIGH RISK.)

*Are you an average or billionaire-minded person?*

*WHY YOU NEED TO THINK DIFFERENTLY TO BECOME A BILLIONAIRE!*

MONEY:
Average people look for ways to spend money. Billionaires look for ways to invest money.

INVESTMENT:
Average people invest just a little. Billionaires know that investing is the key to abundance.

JOBS:
Average people think of a better job that would make them wealthy. Billionaires know that a job will never make them wealthy, investments will.

RISK:
Average people stay away from risk because they might fail. Billionaires know if they don't take risks, they have already failed.

PROBLEMS:
Average people try to avoid problems. Billionaires see problem as an opportunity to make billions.

PREPARATION:
Average people prepare for today. Billionaires prepare today for the opportunities of tomorrow.

TIME:
Average people waste time. Billionaires see time as their most valuable assets.

FEAR:
Average people are always afraid of losing money. Billionaires know if they lose money they can be wiser, smarter and stronger.

*Think about this and act fast!

THROW AWAY THAT DEGREE - AND THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX

"Most of the educated people in Ghana are poor. Majority of the educated earn a salary of  less than Ghc1500. When the deductions are put into consideration, the net salary comes to around Ghc800. The net salary then suffers from loan deductions of up to Ghc 250 leaving the salary at around Ghc500. The landlord then demands for his Ghc150 and monthly shopping takes away 350 leaving one with nothing. The whole salary is gone and borrowed money starts operating. The borrowed money includes short loans and salary advances.

The difference between poverty and prosperity is property. A prosperous person has property to his name while a poverty stricken person has no property to show. Using this understanding, therefore, most of the degree holders are poverty stricken, borrowing money to buy chicken and chips, pizza, and a car.
.
The biggest excuse for getting paid such low amounts of money and having to sit and work for another person for 30 days is THE DEGREE that one possesses and that’s all. This has made most of the degree holders very poor to poverty stricken and will die that way most likely. A degree holder does not know how to generate money unless that money is generated for the employer. A degree holder is so dependent on the salary that he can do anything to get a job but will not think of starting a business of his own to employ others.
.
1. A degree holder is not prepared to sell chips but is very happy to work for Chicken Inn.

.
2. A degree holder is not prepared to start a company and grow it in two to three years but will spend three years searching for a job.

3. A degree holder is so eager to get out of this country and work in another country than spend time to develop his own country.
.
4. A degree holder staying in a foreign land is very keen to condemn his country but never contributing to the development of this country.
.
5. A Ghanaian degree holder would rather sweep the streets of UK or South Africa than start a business and make money in Ghana – others work in old people’s homes doing some work there.
.
6. A degree holder in Ghana will watch adult movies on his laptop but never to write a book using the same laptop to sell and make money.
.
7. A degree holder will blame the government for lack of jobs even after he was on government cadetship for him to have his degree.
.
8. Ghana is blessed with people who have master’s degree and others are doctors in different technical fields such as IT and Engineering but most of them have failed to create a cartoon character and develop a movie from the same instead very happy to buy Tom and Jerry for their children thereby promoting America.
.

��Why are the degree holders poor?
.
Because they have decided to pride themselves in a degree and failed to think better than a man who does not have even a certificate to his name.
.
Degree holders spend their time liking articles on linkedIn and facebook but never have any care in the world to implement what they like. Poverty starts from the mind, a mind that just likes things but never to implement those things.
.
If you want to progress, throw away that degree and start thinking better than someone without a degree. Be prepared to get your hands dirty and work like an ox for your business. Your hard work will pay off".
.
Entrepreneurship must be taught. And Africa must unite now to decolonise the Education System.

YOUR TIMING DECIDES YOUR OUTCOME

Doing the right thing at the wrong time makes the right thing the wrong thing and results in grievous and regrettable mistakes.

Mostly people (we) do the right thing at the wrong time due to;

Impatience, fear and Immaturity.

Whatever God/wisdom teaches you to do has a right timing and that's something very important to note, if you are going to avoid making more mistakes.

Most decisions are not right or wrong in themselves but the timing of such decisions decide whether they are wrong or right.

*Get close to God and ask Him "When"; and He will lead you into the right timings and seasons my beloved..*

*Keep the faith*
