2 Really Important Corporate Lessons
LESSON 1
A junior manager, a senior manager and their boss are on their way to a meeting. On their way through a park, they come across a wonder lamp.They rub the lamp and a ghost appears.
The ghost says : "Normally, one is granted three wishes but as you are three, I will allow one wish each"
So the eager senior manager shouted : "I want the first wish. I want to be in the Bahamas , on a fast boat and have no worries." Pfufffff, and he was gone.
Now the junior manager could not keep quiet and shouted : "I want to be in Florida with beautiful girls, plenty of food and cocktails." Pfufffff, and he was also gone.
The boss calmly said : "I want these two idiots back in the office after lunch at 12.35pm ."
Moral of the story :
ALWAYS ALLOW THE BOSSES TO SPEAK FIRST

LESSON 2
Standing in front of a shredder with a piece of paper in his hand.
"Listen." said the CEO. "This is a very sensitive and important document, and my secretary has left. Can you make this thing work ?"
"Certainly." said the young executive.
He turned the machine on, inserted the paper, and pressed the start button.
"Excellent, excellent!" said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside the shredder machine. "I just need one copy."
Moral of the story :
NEVER, NEVER ASSUME THAT YOUR BOSS KNOWS EVERYTHING.
