Malaysian Ingris
Malaysian Ingris
This is one of my favourite anecdotes. It never fail to tickle me.
1. An employee applied for leave for a “bercukur ceremony” of his baby son (shaving his son’s head rites).
“As I want to shave my son's head , please leave me for two days.”
2. Another employee’s daughter is getting married and he applied for leave.
“As I am marrying my daughter , please grant a week's leave..”
3. Another employee applied for leave, as his mother-in-law has just died.
“As my mother-in-law has expired and I am only one responsible for it , please grant me 10 days leave.”
4. Another applied for ½ a day’s leave for a burial rite.
“Since I've to go to the cremation ground at 10 o-clock and I may not return , please grant me half day casual leave”
5. A sick employee applied for leave.
“I am suffering from fever , please declare one-day holiday.”
6. A sick student applied for a day’s leave from the Headmaster.
“As I am studying in this school I am suffering from headache. I request you to leave me today”
7. Another sick student applied for leave.
“As my headache is paining , please grant me leave for the day.”
8. A Clerk wrote in his covering letter.
“'I am enclosed herewith...”
9. Another Clerk wrote…..
“Dear Sir, with reference to the above , please refer to my below...”
10. An employee whose wife is sick applied for leave.
"My wife is suffering from sickness and as I am her only husband at home I may be granted leave.”
11. A well wisher ……
“I am well here and hope you are also in the same well."
12. A candidate responded to a job advertisement.
“This has reference to your advertisement calling for a ' Typist and an Accountant - Male or Female'... As I am both, for the past several years and I can handle both with good experience , I am applying for the post.”
