Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for Microsoft
Europe.  5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One candidate was Urio,
Tanzanian living in USA .
Bill Gates thanked all the candidates for coming and asking those who do not
know JAVA programming to leave. 2000 people left the room. Urio says to himself,
'I do not know JAVA but I have nothing to lose if I stay I'll give it a try.
Bill Gates asked the candidates who never had experience of managing more than
100 people to leave. 2000 people left the room. Urio says to himself ' I never
managed anybody by myself but I have nothing to lose if I stay. What can happen
to me?' So he stays.
Then Bill Gates asked candidates who do not have management diplomas to leave.
500 people left the room.Urio says to himself, 'I left school at 15 but what
have I got to lose?' So he stays in the room.
Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Russian to leave. 498
people left the room. Urio says to himself, ' I do not speak one word of Russian
but what do I have to lose?' So he stays and
finds himself with one other candidate.
Everyone else has gone. Bill Gates joined them and said 'Apparently you are the
only two candidates who have all the required qualifications & experience I am
looking for and speak Russian, so I'd now like to hear you have a conversation
together in that language.' and Calmly,
Urio turns to the other candidate and says `shimbony shafo bana!'
The other answers 'sicha kabsa mleu mbonyi saa kasi wana wai wecha kabsi nkwi
ukeri si ku si mleu
Urio, "nikunu ma mtoni ngikeri fo ngisengeta eleri mndu chu aicha wachaka nyi fo
ruwa"
The other candidate answers"lasma atumanye wachaka tukeri kila handu"
Bill Gates hired them immediately thinking that they were speaking Russian
