The Mallu Way Of Thinking
Wednesday 16th, July 2008
With due apologies to the people involved, please take this in light humor.

A Sardarji had placed an advert for candidates to select for a trip to the stars

In short, to outer space

He was certain that the candidates would not make it back and hence was offering a high reward in USD

Finally he short listed three candidates……A Sardarji, a Tamilian and of course a Mallu

The Sardar asked for 3.5M for the trip, but the Tamilian only 1M and the interviewer made a note of both

However, the Mallu asked for 3M but offered the interviewer 1M as you know [a gift for his family]

The interviewer obviously selected the Mallu

The next day after the launch, he noted the Mallu hanging around the canteen

The interviewer was furious. He walked up to him and asked him, what the meaning of his presence was, or why he didn’t go

The Mallu told him not to worry and explained to him the details of the launch

That is to say, in his words, he had paid the Tamilian 1M and had sent him

Amen
