Joke - Elephant and Infosys, Wipro & TCS Folks

Another email forward.

One day, three consultants, one from Wipro, one from Infosys and one from TCS, went together for a walk. They were old buddies from b-school, and they were joining together to remember the tough old days they went as students together.

For no apparent reasons, they went into this zoo an passed an elephant.Having worked in the same field and from the same school, of course there is a little bit of peer competition going on between themselves, so when he saw this elephant, an idea clicked the Infosys guy, he said to the others ' Why don't we prove who are the best among ourselves?'. The other two, of course, agreed.

Then the Infoscion said 'Let's make a test. Whoever can make this elephant to laugh, he works for the best firm'.

After they all agreed, they started. Being a pure logical strategist, the Infoscion tried to make the elephant laugh by telling jokes. Of course it stayed still... As a more practical consultant, the Wipro guy tried to make funny gestures... and the elephant still stayed still.... Now, comes the TCS guy.. Being the practical guy he was always told to be, he whispered something to the elephant, and it laughed at him while pointing its fingers to him...

The other two were astonished. How come this TCS guy be able to beat them? So the Wipro guy said 'OK, let's make another test. Let's make this elephant cry !!'. So there they went again, practicing the same method as before. The Infosys guy told sad sad stories, the Wipro guy made sad gestures, and they fail again......

Then, the TCS guy whispered something again to the elephant's ear and it just cried, weeping.....and patting the TCS guy's shoulder.
This cannot be, thought the other two. So the Infoscion said 'OK, you've won twice. If you can win this test, we will bow to you. Let's make this elephant run'.

He went and bark to the elephant orders to run. Of course, it stayed still .... The Wipro guy pushes the elephant and stab it with stake to make it run, it stayed still. So...our TCS guy come to it and whispered something again to it's ear and the elephant run and run as fast as it could, as if it was scared to death.

The other two surrendered. They say 'OK, you're the best pal. You work for a very good firm, tell us your secret'.

'Well' said the TCS guy, 'the first time I made it laugh, I said I work for TCS'.

' When I made it cry as if it were very sad and patted me, I told the elephant how much I get paid'.

' And when I made it run scared to death, I said to it, Why don't you join TCS?'

this joke is very old... now-a-days, this will hold good for infy, tcs and wipro when compared to the MNCs. by the way, infy's pay is not much different from that of tcs's!

true. infy is no way better than tcs. just that tcs does not make a lot of noise while infy is just a PR company.
