Hi, Good day…

I would like to share a little short story. 

There is this man, who have been working for his boss for many years. With his experience, talented skills, in building beautiful houses, he had made his boss a happy man.  

As he approaches to his retirement year, his boss wanted him to do 1 last job.

"I want you to do the most beautiful design, the most expensive house you can ever build, the best, from your years of experience building all the other houses and name me all the tools, the best material that you want, don't think about the cost, just build, I will provide all for you for free." said the Boss. "Please take as much time as you want to build this last house." " you just build that dream house " " just tell me what you need and build it "

This man took his own sweet time to build this last house, and he doesn't do it according to what he was told to do. He doesn't put his best imagination, and only utilizing average building material, moderate designs and styles. He do it for the sake of doing it.

Finally, he fixed the door and handed the key – " Boss, I finished the house you wanted " he said.

Then, the boss asked him to his big office, chat with him, to wish him thank you and as an appreciation for his long service and skillful work, the boss hand over the house key to him as his retirement bonus.
