How to make everything out of nothing

I should really tag zewt for this since it's accounting related. Well I am sure he would drop by. Hahaha.

There was this friend of mine who had just graduated from one of the business school. He searched for a job for some time till he found an ad for an accountant. Then he just call up and was set up with an interview. It's a small business ran by an old man. Below is what that guy told me of what happened during the interview.

Boss: I need someone with an accounting degree and I see you have one with good results. This job you see, is mainly because I'm looking for someone to do my worrying for me.

Friend: Huh?

Boss: You see, I worry about a lot of things and one of the major things is I don't want to have to worry about money. Your job will be to take all the money worries off my back. So can you?

Friend: I see and how much does the job pays?

Boss: I'll start you at eighty thousand. How does that sound?

Friend: Eighty thousand dollars! That is a real good deal for a fresh graduate like me. Anyway, how can such a small business afford a sum like that?

Boss: That, is your first worry.

My friend never accepted that job...

Curiosity kills the cat - CALIMOCHO @ THE WINE SHOP Penang

Image
Curiosity kills the cat? Why? Cause I tried this cola called curiosity cola from Fentimans once and now I am hooked for life. Some time ago I was invited to try this drink called Calimocho at The Wine Shop in Penang. For those who do not know what it is, it's actually a mixture of wine and cola in equal proportion served with ice in it. The blend? Perfect and not to mention best drink on a hot warm day. Not too sweet, not too alcoholic. I was wondering why they didn't bring this to Penang much earlier. The cola used was imported all the way from the UK by Exclusivetea Sdn Bhd. What makes it one of a kind is that Curiosity Cola from Fentimans was botanically brewed. The taste is not as sweet as any other cola in the market but it brings back memories of those cola candy I once had when I was still a kid. We were also served The Wine Shop's famous dishes, oven fresh "vegetarian pizza"   Best wine pairing "Cheese Platter" and juicy...

Pants on fire while it's down

I was at my friends place some time ago and he is one who always bragged about how many girlfriends he has outside. Oh. By the way he has is married. We were having tea at his place because of some "business" proposals to settle. He was seating quietly reading his morning paper drinking coffee with me. Suddenly, his wife came from behind with a frying pan and almost knocked him senseless then and there. Friend : What was that for? You know pain one anot? Wife : Why do you have a piece of paper in your coat pocket with "Daisy" written on it? Friend : Oh honey, don't you remember two weeks ago before the Chinese New Year when I went to the horse races? Daisy was the name of the horse I bet on. His wife was satisfied with his answer and apologized for wacking him. This morning I went to his place and the same thing happened. The wife came with a frying pan also and wacked him so hard on his head that he can barely stand up after that. Friend : What is this for this...
