    Default Dilberts theory

    I've noticed a fair bit of steam being generated in this part of the forum lately
    so as the saying goes .....
    and now for something completely different

    DILBERT'S THEOREM ON SALARY

    Dilbert's Theorem on Salary states that engineers and scientists can never earn as much salary as business executives and sales people. This theorem can now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following three postulates:

    Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power (Knowledge=Power)

    Postulate 2: Time is Money (Time=Money)

    Postulate 3 (as every engineer knows): Power = Work / Time

    By substitution, since Knowledge = Power,
    Postulate 3 becomes: Knowledge = Work / Time

    and since Time = Money,
    we have: Knowledge = Work / Money

    Solving for Money, we get:
    Money = Work / Knowledge

    Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity,
    regardless of the amount of Work done.

    Conclusion: The Less you Know, the More you Make.


    how true is this

    Every time I come to "Grumpy Ol Men"
    I find something that someone, somewhere else
    gets peeved off with something we have here as well.
    we have 3 wheelie bins here, dumb local councils, shopping bags etc etc
    makes you wonder why anyone would migrate from one part of the world to another ...

    must be time for another

    Must be time to de-grump again


    A young couple were on their honeymoon. The husband was sitting in the bathroom on the edge of the bathtub saying to himself, "Now how can I tell my wife that I've got really smelly feet and that my socks absolutely stink? I've managed to keep it from her while we were dating, but she's bound to find out sooner or later that my feet stink. Now how do I tell her?"

    Meanwhile, the wife was sitting in the bed saying to herself, "Now how do I tell my husband that I've got really bad breath? I've been very lucky to keep it from him while we were courting, but as soon as he's lived with me for a week, he's bound to find out. Now how do I tell him gently?"

    The husband finally plucks up enough courage to tell his wife and so he walks into the bedroom. He walks over to the bed, climbs over to his wife, puts his arm around her neck, moves his face very close to hers and says, "Darling, I've a confession to make."

    And she says, "So have I, love."

    To which he replies, "Don't tell me, you've eaten my socks."
