Yes, I get it. As a mother myself, I completely understand. You are a doting mom. You think your son is a genius. Even when his teachers, your neighbors, their grand-aunts, in fact, the whole world tells you that your boy has an IQ of a doorknob, you do not agree. He is your son, and you are firmly convinced that he is destined for great things.
- When he drops out of school, you blame it on the teachers.
- When he can't get a job on his own merit, you think it is the employers are at fault.
- You get him a job using your influence, he fails miserably at that too. You curse the cruel world.
You and your band of cheer leaders cheer loudly at his smallest accomplishments. He is 44, unmarried. He has no degree nor does he have a job. In fact, he cannot list a SINGLE accomplishment of his own. Naturally, sonny boy is a bit depressed. He is tired of the robot you bought him some time ago. He wants a new toy.
You are his doting mamma, after all! Most mothers would have done that.
Only difference is, while other mothers might buy their sons a motorcycle or a car, you want to give your son a whole COUNTRY to run!
Lady, you certainly dream big!
UNEMPLOYED YOUTH, 42, AGREES TO RUN COUNTRY, HIRES SHERLOCK HOLMES
In news that has been described as 'a ray of hope for the unemployed', Rahul Gandhi, 42, has agreed to take a job.
"They were ruining my shoes by crying all over them," said Mr Gandhi. "I couldn't take it anymore. Plus Kapil Sibal threatened to write me a poem. I had to save the nation from that."
The Society For Prevention of Cruelty to Idiots has welcomed the move, as have the Global Comedy Council, the Masochist Majority, and Footkissers Anonymous.
"Our members are very enthusiastic," said Mr Charan Chhoo, secretary, FA. "It's been good times for them. Now it's going to be even better. It just goes to show that there is nothing you cannot achieve if you kiss the right feet."
Mr Gandhi has asked the Congress Party to hire eminent detective Sherlock Holmes, to help him get some clues. "Someone mentioned that he was fictional, but I'm not narrow-minded," said Mr Gandhi, "I don't care which fiction he belongs to."
Will his lack of any kind of work experience whatsoever prove to be a handicap?
"Well, it didn't stop mummy," said Mr. Gandhi. "Look how well that turned out". ==================================================================
