Father : "I want you to marry a girl of my choice"
Son : "I will choose my own bride!"
Father : "But the girl is Bill Gates's daughter."
Son : "Well, in that case...ok"
Next - Father approaches Bill Gates.
Father : "I have a husband for your daughter."
Bill Gates : "But my daughter is too young to marry!"
Father : "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank."
Bill Gates : "Ah, in that case...ok"
Finally Father goes to see the president of the World Bank.
Father : "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president. "
President : "But I already have more vice- presidents than I need!"
Father : "But this young man is Bill Gates's son-in-law."
President : "Ah, in that case...ok"

How to do business...Bill Gates & Paul Allen
Thats exactly how they sold MS-DOS to IBM.
Bill Gates & Paul Allen rank amatures attended a meeting with IBM and signed an aggrement to sell them a Disk Operating System for the upcomming IBM machine (CP/M). Bill said they had developed an Operating System. (this shocked Paul to some extent as they did not have such an Operating System and there was very little time to start from scratch).
When Paul questioned Bill later, Bill told him that Paul had told him about a guy who had developed a CP/M clone called 86-Dos. This guy was Tim Paterson, from whom they bought the rights for $50,000. Then they renamed the OS as MS-DOS.
Later on both Steve Jobs of Apple and Bill Gates would copy the "GUI & mouse" from Xerox which had 1st introduced GUI & Mouse. Steve acused Gates of copying from him, while Gates acused Steve of copying it from Xerox.
And these are the guys who are pushing Patent Rights on us....Lol

I know that and My answer that is " it is nothing to with this job. You can hire me if you think I am the most suitable for this position not because my reason to leave the other company :)
Is normal to ask you those type of questions. All you have to said: I'm looking for room to expand myself in my field, because I believe I'm bringing to this company is great experience, knowledge and good values. Something like that.Don't ever criticize your former company. Just tell them of your goals and objectives you have for the new company.Most chairmans and HR people from other companies they know each other very well.The Red Pope of Qatar Living
So true Red_Pope. I hate the typical question of "Why you want to leave your present company?" That is non of their business.
Seriously I have participated in one interview after one hour of intense questioning, where I was told to get a cup of black coffee from the break area and bring it in the conference room.I did, no sugar, just straight black coffee. I placed the coffee in the chairman corner table. Then he asked me: How do you know it was for me and not for you?I told him politely: Sir, You ask me to bring you a cup of black Coffee nothing more. You did not told me to get myself a cup of coffee.I got hired with them and did worked for them for 3 years. The test was about how well you understand orders. The Red Pope of Qatar Living
At the conclusion of the sermon, the worshipers filed out of the sanctuary to greet the minister.
As one of them left, he shook the minister's hand, thanked him for the sermon and said, "Thanks for the message, Reverend. You know, you must be smarter than Einstein."
Beaming with pride, the minister said, "Why, thank you, brother!"
As the week went by, the minister began to think about the man's compliment. The more he thought, the more he became baffled as to why anyone would deem him smarter than Einstein. So he decided to ask the man the following Sunday.
The next Sunday he asked the parishioner if he remembered the previous Sunday's comment about the sermon. The parishioner replied that he did.
The minister asked, "Exactly what did you mean that I must be smarter than Einstein?"
The man replied, "Well, Reverend, they say that Einstein was so smart that only ten people in the entire world could understand him. But Reverend, no one can understand you."
Nice one and Bill Gates was baffled...... The Red Pope of Qatar Living
Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for Microsoft Europe. 5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One candidate was Sompala Pathirana a Sinhalese living in USA.
Bill Gates thanked all the candidates for coming and asking those who do not know JAVA programming to leave. 2000 people leave the room. Soma says to himself, 'I do not know JAVA but I have nothing to lose if I stay. I'll give it a try' Bill Gates asked the candidates who never had experience of managing more than 100 people to leave. 2000 people leave the room.. Soma says to himself ' I never managed anybody by myself but I have nothing to lose if I stay. What can happen to me?' So he stays.
Then Bill Gates asked candidates who do not have management diplomas to leave. 500 people leave the room. Soma says to himself, 'I left school at 15 but what have I got to lose?' So he stays in the room.
Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Serbo - Croat to leave. 498 people leave the room. Soma says to himself, ' I do not speak one word of Serbo - Croat but what do I have to lose?' So he stays and finds himself with one other candidate. Everyone else has gone.Bill Gates joined them and said 'Apparently you are the only two candidates who have all the required qualifications & experience I am looking for and speak Serbo - Croat, so I'd now like to hear you have a conversation together in that language.'
and......
Calmly, Soma turns to the other candidate and says `Kohomada Machang? (How are you my Brother)
The other candidate answers ' Ammata Hudu....umbath Lankavenda (bloody hell you are from Sri lanka as well)??
I love it!

Being positive in everything we do would eventually pays off after a certain point in time. With all the uncertainties in our world today, this is, I think the best that we can do.
