The manager of a large
office asked a new
employee to come into his
office. "What is your
name?," was the first thing
the manager asked. "John," the new guy replied. The
manager scowled. "Look, I
don't know what kind of a
namby-pamby place you
worked at before, but I
don't call anyone by their first name! It breeds
familiarity and that leads to
a breakdown in authority,"
he said. "I refer to my
employees by their last
name only -e.g Smith, Jones, Baker - that's all. Now that
we got that straight, what
is your last name?" The new
guy sighed and said,
"Darling. My name is John
Darling." The manager said, "Okay, John, the next thing
I want to tell you..."
