Nothing official about it
An official circular combining two different information was posted on notice board. The first one was of a holiday notice and second was a confirmation notice about nullifying a holiday on a particular date. Readers wits came to end to apprehend it. Few believed that the vacation will continue till the date mentioned in it. However such interpretation was not apprehend by the management and either to save paper or showing some extra brilliance theyclubbed it together and it created a chaotic situation. Later on when matter was brought to the notice of management, mistake was realized and a different notice was prepared to clear the wind. Meanwhile someone from the management suggested to strike off the second part of notice as when we are not declaring a holiday it would be assumed that the office will remain open. The confusion can be averted.
I was asked the same thing and I narrated an interesting incident to make it more clear as what I believe. Once a person was going somewhere and he saw a message on the wall, "Likhne Wala Akalmand, Padhne Wala Moorkh" (One who has written is wise and one who reads it's, is a fool). Since he has read it and felt insulted. So he rubbed it off and wrote, Padhne Wala Akalmand, Likhne Wala Moorkh" (One who reads it, is wise and one who wrote it, is a fool). People burst out in laughter when they understood the literal meaning of it.
However, this incident have had happened with me several times, when I intend to say something and people interpret it otherwise. They tend to believe and act the same way as the person who interpreted the message wrong and went on to prove his intelligence. My intention have never been to demean someone or to degrade the knowledge and I don't blame if they don't get it right. In fact they have confined themselves to believe in a particular way. Some of them even blame me to be confused and yet again I say Only Fools are certain, it takes wisdom to be confused.
