A newly joined trainee engineer asks his boss "what is the meaning of appraisal?"
Boss: "Do you know the meaning of resignation?"
Trainee: "Yes I do"
Boss: "So let me make you understand what an appraisal is by comparing it with resignation"
Comparison study: Appraisal and Resignation
Appraisal | Resignation |
In appraisal meeting they will speak only about your weakness, errors and failures. | In resignation meeting they will speak only about your strengths, past achievements and success. |
In appraisal you may need to cry and beg for even 10% hike. | In resignation you can easily demand (or get even without asking) more than 50-60% hike. |
During appraisal, they will deny promotion saying you didn't meet the expectation, you don't have leadership qualities, and you had several drawbacks in your objective/goal. | During resignation, they will say you are the core member of team; you are the vision of the company how can you go, you have to take the project on shoulder and lead your juniors to success. |
There is 90% chance for not getting any significant incentives after appraisal. | There is 100% chance of getting immediate hike after you put the resignation. |
Trainee: "Yes boss enough, now I understood my future. For a good appraisal
I will have to resign ... !!!"

A father put his three year old daughter to bed,
Told her a story and listened to her prayers which she ended by saying
"God bless Mommy, God bless daddy, God bless grandma and good-bye grandpa."
The father asked, "Why did you say good-bye grandpa?"
The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to
do."
The next day grandpa died.
The father thought it was a strange coincidence.
A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her
prayers, which went like this:
"God bless Mommy, God Bless daddy and good-bye grandma."
The next day the grandmother died.
Oh my god, thought the father, this kid is in contact with the other side.
Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say,
"God bless Mommy and good-bye daddy."
He practically went into shock.
He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his
office.
He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent in and watched the clock.
He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay.
He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day
he stayed there, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound.
Finally midnight arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.
When he got home his wife said
"I've never seen you work so late, what's the matter?"
He said "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my
life."
She said "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened
here.
He asked "What ??"
She said "This morning our neighbour James suddenly died."
*Husband & Wife - Love Your Enemy*
From his death bed, the husband called his wife and said, "One month after I
die I want you to marry Peter."
"Peter! But he is your enemy!"
"Yes, I know that ! I've suffered all these years so let him suffer now."
*Husband & Wife - Wedding Ring*
At a cocktail party, one woman said to another, "Aren't you wearing your
wedding ring on the wrong finger? "
The other replied, "Yes I am, I married the wrong man."
*Husband & Wife - Why?*
"Dad, I was away for a few days. Yesterday I sent a fax to my wife telling
her that I'd be home that night, and when I got into my room I found my wife
was in another man's arms. Why? Dad, tell me why!"
Dad kept silent for a few minutes, then coolly said, "Maybe, Son, she didn't
get the fax."
*Husband & Wife - Same Service*
A husband visited a marriage counselor and complained, "When we were first
married, I would come home from the office, my wife would bring my slippers
and our cute little dog would run around barking. Now after ten years it's
all different, I come home, the dog brings the slippers and my wife runs
around barking."
"Why complain?" said the counselor, "You're still getting the same service!"
*Husband & Wife - Love To Do*
A wife, one evening, drew her husband's attention to the couple next door
and said, "Do you see that couple? How devoted they are? He kisses her every
time they meet. Why don't you do that?"
"I would love to.", replied the husband. "But I don't know her well enough."
*Husband & Wife - Come Home Late*
A woman was complaining to the neighbour that her husband always came home late, no matter how she tried to stop him.
"Take my advice," said the neighbour, "and do what I did. Once my husband
came home at three o'clock in the morning, and from my bed I called out: "Is
that you, Jim?" And that cured him.
"Cured him !" asked the woman, "but how?"
The neighbour said, "You see, his name is Bill."

Any attempt to stretch beyond this timing will lead to severe health problems.

Public art at Cardiff Bay barrage!!!
Between 11 and 25 March 2007, Swiss artist Felice Varini and his team created an unusual piece of public art that is set to baffle and fascinate visitors to Cardiff Bay barrage in the United Kingdom.
The piece, entitled 3 Ellipses for 3 Locks, was commissioned by arts agency CBAT for the Cardiff Harbour Authority and cost £25,000.
A series of three yellow ellipses have been painted onto the working locks, gates and even the outer sea wall to create a piece that took a year to plan.
The artist used photography, projection and painting to plan the piece which is his first in Wales and also his first work in the UK.
Professional mountain climbers were required to access the barrage's difficult high structures. The piece was designed to highlight the main working parts of the barrage.
The Harbour Authority approached CBAT to commission the piece, which compliments another 30 open air art projects dotted around the bay area.
From virtually every angle the marks look like splashes of yellow colour against the backdrop of the Penarth headland and the Bristol channel.
But on closer inspection visitors to the Barrage are treated to a visual spectacle featuring three perfectly formed yellow ellipses.
All you have to do to see Felice Varini's 'Anamorphic Illusion' properly formed, like in the above picture, is find a precise vantage point somewhere on the barrage.
