5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One candidate is a man from Bongo.
Bill Gates: Thank you for coming. Those who do not know JAVA may leave.
2000 people leave the room.
Man from Bongo 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: Candidates who never had experience of managing more than 100 people may leave.
2000 people leave the room.
Man from Bongo 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.
Bill Gates: Candidates who do not have management diplomas may leave.
500 people leave the room.
Man from Bongo says to himself, 'I left school at 16 (std seven) but what have I got to lose?' So he stays in the room.
Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Hutu and Tusi to leave. 498 people leave the room.
Man from Bongo says to himself, ' I do not speak one word of Xitsonga 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 speak Xitsonga, so I'd now like to hear you have a conversation together in that language.'
Calmly, Man from Bongo turns to the other candidate and says...... Mambo vipi?'
The other candidate answers Poa mkuu... Naona umeng'ang'ana kinoma...!

ReplyDeleteNaona hujaelewa story yenyewe... Yeye anamaanisha kwamba wabongo wawili ndio waliobakia na huyu jamaa alijua atakula bingo kumbe kuna mjanja mwengine kama yeye kabakia pia bila ya kuwa na vigezo (hope I'm right). By the way, the author of the post made a mistake in one area, saying that 2000 leave instead of 'left'

ReplyDeleteBritons' bathroom habits revealed
ReplyDeleteNearly half of British adults admit to not washing for more than three days, a survey revealed.
The nation's bathroom habits were put under the spotlight by Mira Showers Plc, in a bid to develop their product range.
The results revealed 43% of women and 53% of men are happy to put off showering for three days.
Mdau nakusifia sana kwa kutuweka wazi sisi wabongo.
ReplyDeleteEti wadau naomba kuuliza hivi wabunge wetu wengi wa kuteuliwa na viti maalumu si ndo hawa, hivi mmesoma profile zao? Wengi wao ni form four, tena failure; ila bado wamo tu wanangangana kinoma kuwemo Bungeni. I know for sure, hawawezi kupeleka muswada hata mmoja bungeni ila wanangangana mpaka dakika za mwisho za mwaka wa tano wanachukua shangingi na million 25; mimi sijui Bongo niifanyeje??

ReplyDeleteHi poa sana, nimecheka sana.
ReplyDeleteMkosoa English, wewe ndio umekosea. Leave hapo imetumika kisahihi kabisa.
ha ha ha ha, sawa mkuu, huyu jamaa alijua fika kwa vigezo vile hakuna atakaebaki na aliebaki lazima awe ni mbongo tu, ndo maana jamaa aliturn pembeni na kumpa 'mambo vipi'?
ReplyDeleteLkn kwa kua Bill Gates mwenyewe hajui hicho kilugha, chochote watakachoongea ni powa tu kwake, duh, wabongo bana, piga uwa garagaza, unakomaa tu.
Ohoo what a good story!!! Lakini nadhani haikumaliza lazima utakuwa kuna kitu kiliendelea baada ya hapo; maana hatujaambiwa kama jamaa ndio ameikwaa job au la. Lakini I guess it end up like this:
ReplyDeleteBill Gates: Gentlemen I am impressed with your language performance so far thank you and let us come to the business. Well can I see your CV please?
Each man handed over his CV to Bill Gates immediately. Bill Gates went through the first CV then the second in less than a minute, the next thing he picked up a phone and call a Centre for mental retarded people reporting that there are two people in his office who meet their admission criteria.
