For thirty years, Johnson had arrived at work at 9A.M. on the dot. He had never missed a day and was never late.
Consequently, when on one particular day 9 A.M. passed without Johnson's arrival, it caused a sensation. All work ceased, and the boss himself, looking at his watch and muttering, came out into the corridor.
Finally, precisely at ten, Johnson showed up, clothes dusty and torn, his face scratched and bruised, his glasses bent. He limped painfully to the time clock, punched in, and said, aware that all eyes were upon him, "I tripped and rolled down two flights of stairs in the subway. Nearly killed myself."
And the boss said, "And to roll down two flights of stairs took you a whole hour?"

Ek lerki thi dewani si, Inter mein wo parhti thi…! Chashma laga ker, kitabin uhta ker, Library say guzrati thi… Kuch parhna tha shayed us ko, fail hony say wo darti thi… Jab milti thi mujh say, bus yahi pocha kerti thi: Yeh inter kaisy hota hai… Yeh inter kaisy hota hai…? Or mein sirf yahi keh pata tha: Kitabin khuli hon ya hon bund, perhna akhri raat hi hota hai, Kesa kahun main Oh yara ya inter kehsa hota hai… Dedicated to all Inter Buddie
