Self Assessment & Evaluation Always Help In Grooming

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!"
