OG Moti Posted January 22, 2004 Worker (Somali) Dead at Desk for five Days _________________________________________________ From the New York Times: Bosses of publishing firm are trying to work out why no one noticed that one of their employees had been sitting dead at his desk for five days before anyone asked if he was feeling okey. Farax Warsame, 43, who had been employed as a proof – reader at a New York firm for 15 years, had a stomach crush, in the open – plan office he shared with other 25 other workers. He quietly passed away on Monday, but nobody noticed until Saturday morning when an office cleaner asked why he was working during the weekend. His Boss, Elliot Wachiaski, said: “Warsame was always the first guy in each morning and the last to leave at night, and no one knew he had Ulcer, he never told anyone, so no one found it unusual that he was in the same position all that time and didn’t say anything, He way always absorbed in his work and kept much to him self,” A post modern examination revealed that he had been dead for five days after suffering a stomach bleeding. Warsame was proofreading manuscripts of medical textbooks when he died. He was also writing a Letter to someone, In Latin words but wasn’t English or European, experts think it was Somalian scrip. His Family did not notice his absence for 5 days, when asked they said Warsame comes home once every 3 weeks. ________________________________________________ The moral of the story: Don’t work too hard. Nobody notices anyway. Stick to the welfare, at least you wont die angry. Peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted January 23, 2004 Salaan... I first read this urban legend story a month ago in a satiric story by a Toronto Star humourist. He was making fun how some of the much-respected mainstream British media succumbed to that story. A recent famous urban legend story circulating around the Internet and finally seducing the mainstream media, especially the British press, including the Daily Mail, BBC, Guardian and Times of London. Daily Mail and Times of London are both tabloids, but I wonder how the respected Guardian and BBC could bow for a very suspicious story like that. For further interesting explanatory piece, you can read on here. _______________ O.G., leave faaraxs alone. Intee u dhameynee masaakiinta, iyagaaba awal intee ka baxaa meel alle taagnaa.
