A beautiful story

A little boy went to a telephone booth which was at the cash counter of a store and dialed a number.

The store-owner observed and listened to the conversation: 
 
Boy: "Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn? 

Woman: (at the other end of the phone line) "I already have someone to cut my lawn." 

Boy: "Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price than the person who cuts your lawn now." 

Woman: I'm very satisfied with the person who is presently cutting my lawn. 

Boy: (with more perseverance) "Lady, I'll even sweep the floor and the stairs of your house for free.

Woman: No, thank you. 
 
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver. The store-owner, who was listening to all this, walked over to the boy. 

Store Owner: "Son... I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job." 

Boy: "No thanks, 

Store Owner:  But you were really pleading for one.

Boy: No Sir, I was just checking my performance at the job I already have. I am the one who is working for that lady I was talking to!"  

THIS IS CALLED SELF APPRAISAL
