Can I Borrow $25?

> > A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.

> > SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'

> > DAD: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the man.

> > SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'

> > DAD: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?' the Man said angrily.

> > SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an Hour?'

> > DAD: 'If you must know, I make $50 an hour.'

> > SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.

> > SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow $25?'

> > The father was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is
so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense,
then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think
about whyyou are being so selfish..... I don't work hard everyday for
such childish frivolities.'

> > The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.

> > The man sat down and started to get even angrier about
the little boy's questions.....How dare he ask such questions only to
get some money?

> > After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down , and started to think:

> > Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with
that $25.00 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went
to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.

> > 'Are you asleep, son?' He asked. 'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.

> > 'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier'
said the man. 'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on
you. Here's the $25 you asked for.'

> > The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you
daddy!'He yelled.. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some
crumpled up bills. The man saw that the boy already had money, started
to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and
then looked up at his father. 'Why do you want more money if you
already have some?' the father grumbled.. Because I didn't have enough,
but now I do,' the little boy replied. !

> > 'Daddy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.'

> > The father was crushed. He put his arms around his
little son, and he begged for his forgiveness. It's just a short
reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let tim%
slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who
really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share
that $50 worth of your time with someone you love..

> > If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for
could easily replace us in a matter of hours, but the family &
friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives

Hahahahahahah you guys a...

what? all i can say is while a picture cud tell a thousand words, a word cud tell a thousand more. cant blame us.

haha,gotcha!i was thinking something else also,but i cover it back!hahahaha

aha....
cannot stand with you all.....
make me laugh always....

haha... i thought this would be a joke. but that is touching. surely that is 50 RM per hour right? cause if its 50 USD per hour... that dude is freaking rich and doesn't need to worry about his kid asking for 25 dollars. seriously. Most I've been paid at any job is 9 USD per hour.

usd 9 per hour.... almost same at here for some job... if convert to rm about rm 32 per hour....
