A young executive was leaving the office at 6 p.m. when he found the CEO
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 machine. "I just need one copy."
Lesson I - Never, never assume that your BOSS knows everything.

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,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"
Lesson III- "Always allow the bosses to speak first"
