๐๐ฟBill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new chairman for Microsoft Europe.
๐๐ฟ5000 candidates assembled in a large room.
๐๐ฟOne candidate was Otieno, a Kenyan living in the USA.
๐๐ฟBill Gates thanked all the candidates for coming, and then asked all those who do not know JAVA programming to leave.
๐๐ฟ2000 people left.
๐๐ฟOtieno thought to himself, โI do not know JAVA, but I have nothing to lose if I stay. I’ll give it a try.”
๐๐ฟBill Gates asked that all candidates who have never had the experience of managing more than 100 people to leave.
๐๐ฟ2000 people left.
๐๐ฟOtieno said to himself, โI’ve never managed anybody by myself, but I have nothing to lose if I stay. What can happen to me?โ He stayed behind again.
๐๐ฟThen Bill Gates asked all candidates who didnโt have a minimum of a Diploma in Business Management to leave.
๐๐ฟ500 people left the room.
๐๐ฟOtieno thought to himself, โI left school at 15, grade 7, but what have I got to lose?โ So, he stayed in the room.
๐๐ฟLastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak fluent Serbian to leave.
๐๐ฟ498 people left the room.
๐๐ฟOtieno thought to himself, โI do not speak one word of Serbian, but what do I have to lose?โ So he stayed behind and found himself with only one other candidate.
๐๐ฟBill Gates joined them and said, โApparently you are the only two candidates who have all the qualifications and experience I am looking for and also speak Serbian. I’d now like to hear the two of you have a conversation together in that language.”
๐๐ฟCalmly Otieno turned to the other candidate, and in a hesitant voice said, “Buana an gigi akia te,ijakure?”
๐๐ฟThe other candidate answered softly but clearly, ” Ichal Koda buana, an ja Seme ?”
The Lord calls the unqualified and qualify them, Don’t quit
