मुल्ला नसरुद्दीन के किस्से व हास्य-रहस्य

CHAPTER 1.
"IT’S YOUR FAULT, SIR,” said Mulla Nasrudin. "YOU HAVE TRAINED ME SO THOROUGHLY NOT
TO WATCH THE CLOCK IN THE OFFICE, NOW I AM IN THE HABIT OF NOT LOOKING AT IT AT
HOME.”

"What’s the idea,” asked the boss of his new employee, Mulla Nasrudin, "of telling me you had five
years’ experience, when now I find you never had a job before?”
"WELL,” said Nasrudin, "DIDN’T YOU ADVERTISE FOR A MAN WITH IMAGINATION?”
5.
Applicants for a job on a dam had to take a written examination, the first question of which was,
"What does hydrodynamics mean?”
Mulla Nasrudin, one of the applicants for the job, looked at this, then wrote against it: "IT MEANS I
DON’T GET JOB.”
6.
The boss was asked to write a reference for Mulla Nasrudin whom he was dismissing after only one
week’s work. He would not lie, and he did not want to hurt the Mulla unnecessarily. So he wrote:
"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: MULLA NASRUDIN WORKED FOR US FOR ONE WEEK, AND
WE ARE SATISFIED.”
7.
A man who took his little girls to the amusement park noticed that Mulla Nasrudin kept riding the
merry-go-round all afternoon. Once when the merry-go-round stopped, the Mulla rushed off, took a
drink of water and headed back again. As he passed near the girls, their father said to him, "Mulla,
you certainly do like to ride on the merry-go-round, don’t you?”
"NO, I DON’T. RATHER I HATE IT ABSOLUTELY AND AM FEELING VERY SICK BECAUSE OF IT,”
said Nasrudin. "BUT,
THE FELLOW WHO OWNS THIS THING OWES ME
80 AND TAKING IT OUT IN TRADE IS THE ONLY WAY I WILL EVER COLLECT FROM HIM.”
8.
"I will bet anyone here that I can fire thirty shots at 200 yards and call each shot correctly without
waiting for the marker. Who will wager a ten spot on this?” challenged Mulla Nasrudin in the
teahouse.
"I will take you,” cried a stranger.
