The truth...
Ok...I am back again to confess..I did went back to office on Sat...thats because my bf came early in the morning to my house, drag me out of bed, bring me for breakfast and send me back to office, and he 'hangs' around till my office event ends..
Yeah...good job, done! Let's give him a round of applaus..*lame*...duhz...
BUT, the truth of the office thing is not my boss birthday, it is my boss had a big juicy news to announce, and we had a 1 hour speech from him. My boss, being a 60 plus going to 70 yrs old man, decided and had signed to sold his company to another big company. The part when he told us that, the requirements to buy his company are to keep the company name and keep all his 450 staffs with a job and salary...i cried...being so touched...
Cos he could have sold it at a much higher price, without caring about us... With the money, think he could buy himself an island and lead a secluded retired life without caring what happened to the outside world...but he didn't...
Well, so much for that, meanwhile, no change to my current work...the sickening stuffs still poured all over my table on Monday morning. Arghh....
Received a forwarded mail...think it is kinda interesting, so sharing it with all.
Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals.
So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question.Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.
The question was: What do women really want?
Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, and to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end.
He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: the princess, the priests,the wise men, and even the court jester.
He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.
Many people advised him to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer.
But the price would be high as the witch was famous through out the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged.
The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first.
The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most noble of the Knights of the Round Table, and Arthur's closest friend !
Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunch-backed and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc.
He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life.
He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden, but Lancelot, having learnt of the proposal, spoke with Arthur.
He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life and the preservation of the Round Table.
Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered
Arthur's question thus: "What a woman really wants," she said, "is to be in charge of her own life."
Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth and that Arthur's life would be spared.
And so it was, the neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom and Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.
The honeymoon hour approached and Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bed room.
But, what a sight awaited him.
The most beautiful woman he had ever seen, lay before him on the bed.
The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened.
The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she would henceforth be her horrible and deformed self only half the time and the beautiful maiden the other half.
"Which would you prefer? she asked him.
"Beautiful during the day ... or at night ?"
Lancelot pondered the predicament.
During the day he could have a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch!
Or, would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day, but by night a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wonderous, intimate moments with?
(If you are a man reading this ...) What would YOUR choice be?
(If you are a woman reading this ..) What would YOUR MAN'S choice be?
What Lancelot chose is below.
BUT ... make YOUR choice before you scroll down below........OKAY?

Noble Lancelot, knowing the answer the witch gave Arthur to his question, said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself.
Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.
Now ... what is the moral to this story ?
The moral is ..
1) If you don't let a woman have her own way, things are going to get ugly ;
2) There is witch in every woman no matter how beautiful she is !!
Yeah...good job, done! Let's give him a round of applaus..*lame*...duhz...
