Boss wants too much [ 2006-12-12 08:35 ] For thirty years, Johnson had
arrived at work at 9A.M. on the dot. He had never missed a day and was never
late.
Consequently, when on one particular day 9 A.M. passed without Johnson's
arrival, it caused a sensation. All work ceased, and the boss himself, looking
at his watch and muttering, came out into the corridor.
Finally, precisely at ten, Johnson showed up, clothes dusty and torn, his
face scratched and bruised, his glasses bent. He limped painfully to the time
clock, punched in, and said, aware that all eyes were upon him, "I tripped and
rolled down two flights of stairs in the subway. Nearly killed myself."
And the boss said, "And to roll down two flights of stairs took you a whole
hour?"
