The document describes two short stories about interviews gone wrong due to inappropriate behavior. In the first story, a boss insults a job applicant with riddles during the interview. The applicant gets revenge by stumping the boss with a riddle of her own, pointing out his lack of intelligence. The second story depicts a student attempting to seduce her professor in exchange for passing an exam. The professor responds by telling her to simply study, maintaining integrity over giving in to immoral means of attaining goals.

The Eccentric Interviewer
An eccentric boss was interviewing a lady applicant for a post
in his company. He had a candle at his desk. With a smug in
his face, the
boss asked the applicant, “Why did the elephant eat the
candle?”
The lady, after a moment of pause, attempted an answer,
“Because the elephant was crazy?”
The boss laughed sneeringly and said, “No, you brainless lady
…because the elephant wanted a light snack!”
The applicant was getting annoyed and insulted. She wanted
to get back at the interviewer.
“Sir,” she said, “do you know what kind of candle burns
longer, a red candle or a green candle?”
The boss was stumped. “A red candle?” he guessed.
“Neither!” the lady said. “Candles always burn shorter! You
lack brains!”
Reflection
* One has to be careful with the words one uses on another.
Just as we do not like to
1. be lied to
2. be slandered
3. have harsh words used upon us
4. be the target of gossip, rumours, insults, ridicule and so on,
likewise, we should not use such speech upon others.
* It does not pay to try to insult or bring down another
person. We are bound to get back negative effects.

“I’d do Anything …”
A sexy young lady undergraduste entered a young professor’s
office. She closed the door and knelt down pleadingly.
“I would do anything to pass this exam," she pleaded.
She then leant closer to him, flipped back her hair, gazed sexily
into his eyes.
“I mean …” she whispered, "... I would do... anything."
“Anything?” the professor returned her gaze.
“Yes, absolutely anything,” she said sexily.
The professor whispered to her, “Go back and study your lecture
notes.”
Reflection
* Today, in this highly materialistic world, so many have lost
their sense of values, moral principles, integrity and human
dignity.
* Many resort to immoral or unethical means to attain
worldly gains. It does not pay in the end ... by the law of
moral causation, immoral actions will eventually bring about
negative consequences.
* Never resort to immoral behaviour to try to achieve your
goal.
Honest hard work is the only way.
