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..!"
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..!"

"Self Appraisal.."
