THE INDIAN IN HIM WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT HIS PARENTS...

[FrapsDirector]

When you hear him say "Cortana jokes" you know he's not wasting any time during a workday.

Q: “What’s your favorite workday time waster?”

A: “Giving interviews”

[zollotech]

No wonder Microsoft is doing so well these days

[doubledoubleandfries]

+1 how he got choked up talking about his parents. ❤

He seems to have 100% control of his brain

It’s important for us to live on both sides of every spectrum to get a better understanding. I’m glad this man was able to experience this with his mother and father.

"favorite workplace time waster"

notice how he has to actually pause and think to answer that one ... probably because he's not "time wasting" a whole lot at work lol. he's the freaking CEO of Microsoft!

[andrewsheehy]

He has done such a great job at Microsoft. A class act.

[zjkingsley]

This guy never listens to Cortana jokes, that's for sure.
