Humorous Anecdote #1: Does management know their staff?

November 29, 2007 2:25 pm

On walking into the factory, the Managing Director (MD) noticed a young guy leaning against the wall, doing nothing.

He approached the young man and calmly said to him, “How much do you earn?”
The young man was quite amazed that he was asked such a personal question, he replied, none the less, “I earn $ 2 000.00 a month, Sir. Why?”

Without answering, the MD took out his wallet and removed $6000.00 cash and gave it to the young man and said, “Around here I pay people for working, not for standing around looking pretty! Here is your 3 months salary, now GET OUT and don’t come back”. The young man turned around and was quickly out of sight.

Noticing a few onlookers, the MD said in a very upset manner, “And that applies for everybody in this company”. He approached one of the onlookers and asked him, “Who’s the young man that I just fired?” To which an amazing reply came of, “He was the pizza delivery man, Sir…!”
