It's actually quite amazing that CPU mining only brings 1 share a day now.

Like ck mentioned above, you'll need about 50 Billions of those and a bit of luck to mine a block with the current difficulty.

Congratulations, each one of those is a 1 diff share. Now you need a 52 billion diff share to find a block, so on average you will find a block after you get 52 billion of those shares on that cpu miner.

Lol they should make a usb miner with some flash memory  so we could trick our bosses into renewing the whole office usb pendrives XD at least that way we could pack a couple hundreds of gigahash just to pay for black coffe.

Thank you so much for your answer, at first I was kind of mad because on the first yay! msg had a similar timed orphaned block, so I was thinking " damn I got a 1 /238098775 hit and it has to be orphaned, that's some serious badluck Brian meme material. Ill just stick mining with my 5 s5, and hope that antpool doesn't have another 50% luck day

Dude I respect you!!! Hahaha!!! Just yesterday I was thinking of getting a USB miner to mine solo for fun but CPU demands total respect HAHAHA!!

Don't get excited by what it is saying though. It's just confirming that you've obtained a getwork, not that you've mined a block.

Of course that I didn't get any money or I won't be here asking for an explanation
next day I got the following

[2015-08-23 04:07:06] Stratum requested work restart

In case you were wondering this is the command I use to run cpuminer
"C:\miner" minerd.exe -a sha256d -o stratum+tcp://stratum.antpool.com:3333 -u MYUSERNAMEFORSOLO.1 -p 123

What's kind of weird is that in solo.ck.pool I had never got that message. So please could anyone explain why my laptop hates me and plays with my feelings??? 50 BTC means that  have my food and expenses for more than 5 Years XD or that I could grow my farm really fast.
Thank  you guys in advance for all your kind help
