Businesses often hire professionals to give workshops and conferences to optimize their workflow. This efficiency expert made it a point to mention how business strategies are not suited for the house.

An efficiency expert was delivering a keynote speech on how the most mundane activities of a business could be optimized. He made many points on creating schedules to avoid doing more work and wasting time or resources.

He was at the end of his lecture and asked the audience if they had any questions regarding the concepts that he discussed. The audience kept silent, and he concluded his speech.

THE ENDING NOTE

As an ending note, he mentioned how the methods and strategies that he talked about today were not applicable everywhere. "You don't want to try these techniques at home," he said.

"Why not?" a voice from the audience asked. The expert leaned on the podium and began explaining the reason behind his claim and said, "I watched my wife's routine at breakfast for years."

"I made notes about her pattern of making breakfast and noticed some flaws in it," he said. He added that she was taking several trips to the refrigerator, cabinets, and stove but carried one item each time.

THE SUGGESTION FOR EFFICIENCY

So, he stepped in and suggested that she make some changes to her way of making breakfast and said, "Hon, why don't you try carrying several things at once?"

Another voice from the audience asked, "Did it save time, though?" The expert looked at the audience, let out an embarrassed chuckle.

He explained, "Well, yes, It used to take her 20 minutes to make breakfast. Now I do it in seven."

THE ROMANTIC DINNER

An elderly couple was celebrating their 50th anniversary in a lavish restaurant. The staff ushered them to a table with an amazing view of the ocean and lit some candles to enhance the ambiance.

As the waiter was taking the order, he noticed how the man would always address his wife with all sorts of endearments. Once he called her honey, followed by darling or sweetheart.

As the night went on, the couple was ready to order dessert. The woman excused herself to the restroom before they placed the order. The waiter took this chance to talk to the man about their marriage.

THE AMAZING RELATIONSHIP

"Wow, you have an amazing relationship with your wife, all those lovely names you call her…" the waiter said. The man looked over at him and let out a sigh.
