A little boy went to a telephone booth which was at the cash counter of
a store and dialed a number.
The store-owner observed and listened to the conversation:
Boy : "Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn ? Woman : (at the other end of the phone line) "I already have
Someone to cut my lawn." Boy : "Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price than the person who cuts your lawn now." Woman : I'm very satisfied with the person who is presently Cutting my lawn. Boy : (with more perseverance) "Lady, I'll even sweep the Floor and the stairs of your house for free. Woman : No, thank you.
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver. The Store-owner, who was listening to all this, walked over to the boy. Store Owner : "Son... I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job." Boy : "No thanks, Store Owner : But you were really pleading for one. Can you Guess, what was the boys reply?
Boy : No Sir, I was just checking my performance at the job I already have. I am the one who is working for that lady I was talking to!" This is called "Self Appraisal"
