    The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a Rs 10,000 bet. The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. Many people like weight-lifters, wrestlers, body builders, etc had tried over time, but nobody could do it.

    One day this scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a safari suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet." After the
    laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man.

    But the ! crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and 5-6 drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the Rs 10,000, and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living?

    Are you a lumberjack, a weight-lifter, or what?"

    "No," replied the man.

    "I work as a project manager in a software company !! "

    DON.
    :D

    I wonder a software engineer is so pressurized these days...
    BTW, it is a funny story. Thanks for sharing, Mr.Don :)

    yeah...it's funny, but I think it's also a moral issue in this joke:)
