Well, what would you like to do when things go wrong?
What? Commit suicide? Oh, no. It’s very stupid, isn’t it?
In the 1800s, Procter and Gamble’s best seller was candles. But the company had been in trouble when Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. Their fears became reality when the market for candles decreased since they now sold only for special occasions.
The outlook appeared to be bleak for Procter and Gamble. However, at this time, it seemed that destiny played a dramatic part in pulling the struggling company from the clutches of bankruptcy – A forgetful employee at small factory in Cincinnati forgot to turn off his machine when he went out to lunch. The result? A frothing mass of lather filled with air bubbles. He almost threw the stuff a way but decided to make it into soap instead. The soap floated. This, ivory soap was born and became the mainstay of the Procter and Gamble Company. Why was soap that floats became such a hot item at the time? In Cincinnati, during that period, some people bathed in the Ohio River. Floating soap would never sink and consequently never got lost. So, Ivory soap became a best seller in Ohio and eventually across the country also.
Like Procter and Gamble, never give up when go wrong or when seemingly insurmountable problems arise. Creativity put to work can change a problem and turn it into a gold mine.

But have you heard of snakes being employed as night-watchmen?
|
Larry Montgomery’s petrol-station in New Orleans, Louisiana – in the United States of America – uses two snakes as patrolmen.
|
Let me continue, Larry decided to make such use of snakes after thieves had broken into his petrol station a number of times. At first, he had dogs for the purpose, but he soon found out that burglars could easily kill dogs. Larry knew that many people afraid of snakes. People are especially nervous when they know that a snake is some where around, but do not know exactly where it is.
|
Since Larry started to use the snakes as watchmen, he found that burglars are not so keen on breaking into his station anymore. Once, some burglars did break in. they were busy going through some drawers in the office when the snakes suddenly appeared. Immediately, the burglars abandoned their search and runaway.
|
So, now, when Larry closes the station every night before going home, they set the snakes loose – These creatures will then crawl about inside the office until the next morning when Larry come to open the station for business.

English Custom
This anecdote is about two Indians settled in England. One had been living there for some years and had picked up some of their quaint euphemisms. The other, a recent settler, was as yet unaware of them. They were invited for dinner by their English friends. After they had had their drinks, their hostess asked them, “Would you like a wash before I serve dinner?”.
The knowledgeable one replied,” No, Thanks”. The new settler replied, “I wash my hands before I came.”.
On their way back after dinner, the older settler admonished his friend,” My dear chap, in England “ Would you like a wash” does not mean “Would you like to wash your hands.” It is a polite way of asking “ would you like to urinate?”. The new settler made a mental note of it.
Some days later he was invited by another English friend and after he had his drinks he was asked by his hostess: “Would you like a wash before I serve my dinner?”.
He replied promptly,” No, thank you, madam. I washed against a tree before coming to your house.”
