Abdul grew up in Kota Baru, a town located on the East Coast of Malaysia,and then moved away to Kuala Lumpur to do his law degree. After graduating, he decided to go back to Kota Baru, because he could be a big man there and he really wanted to impress everyone. So he returned and opened his new law office.
The first day, he saw a man coming up the sidewalk. He decided to make a big impression on this new client when he arrived.
As the man came to the door Abdul picked up the phone. He motioned the man in, all the while talking.
"No. Absolutely no.. You tell those clowns in Kuala Lumpur that I won't settle this case for less than one million ringgit.. Yes. The Appeals Court has agreed to hear that case next week. I'll be handling the primary argument and the other members of my team will provide support. Okay, tell the State Prosecutor that I'll meet with him next week to discuss the details."
This sort of conversation went on for almost five minutes. All the while the man sat patiently as Abdul rattled instructions. Finally, Abdul puts down the phone and turned to the man. "I'm sorry for the delay, but as you can see, I'm very busy. What can I do for you?"
The man replied, "I'm from Telekom. I've come to connect your line".

Everyone in the cleaning industry has always been told that hand dryers in restrooms are not sanitary, they spread germs and bacteria around. I always thought that this just came from the paper companies because they are loosing sales to the hand dryers.
Hand dryers blow a lot of germs and bacteria around. You should take a look under the hand dryer next time you are in a restroom. There is a filter underneath the hand dryer that is supposed to be cleaned on a weekly basis. After checking, it looked like it hadn't been cleaned in years. It had layers and layers of caked on gunk (disgusting).
Additionally, most of the older hand dryers in use (and even some of the newer ones) have an internal screen that should be changed every 1-2 weeks. Unfortunately, most are lucky if they are changed every 1-2 years. This sad reality is not only is a waste of energy, but also keeps more bacteria, germs, and viruses trapped in the dust on the screens, which then is blown directly onto our hands when we dry them. Since then I will not use hand dryers in restrooms. Now this is where the story gets really interesting.
Every time you use an air dryer, the amount of bacteria on your hands increases by 254% and on the finger pads by 194%.
The schools and universities that have had the H1N1 (swine flu) outbreak recent years are being told by the health department that they have to take out all of their hand dryers and replace them with towel dispensers because the hand dryers are spreading disease.
**Please pass this along so everyone knows not to use hand dryers.
