Confused?? Me Too!!

There're times when things can be said, and then there're time when the same thing can be said diferently. Come to think of it- how many times have you argued with a friend when he utters a number, say, '561-251-695' and you say it as '56-12-51-695'.

People, its the same thing; your friend said three numbers at a time and you said the name number, two at a time. And you feel like kicking yourself when you find out its the same thing. I've heard people argue for quite some time in a situation like that.

I remember a joke that happened during an army inspection by the general. One of the cadets was asked the time to which he replied, 'Oh eight hundred hours, sir'. The general pulled him up and sternly warned him, 'Its not 'Oh', its zero.'

'Zero eight hundred hours, sir', came the correction.

'Whats your name, soldier?', the general asked.

'Zero Malley, sir', came the reply.

C'mon, you really cant blame the soldier, he was just following orders.

It happens that way when you've got two people running a department. One says 'Do it this way', the other says 'Do it my way'. You're so confused, because either way you're at the receiving end.
