Ah! Shucks—It's Impossible.
EMPLOYER (to clerk)—"If that bore, Smithers, comes in, tell him I'm out—and don't be working or he'll know you're lying."
The Ten Commandments
(By A Wise Employer)
First—Don't lie. It wastes my time and yours. I am sure to catch you in the end, and that will be the wrong end.
Second—Watch your work, not the clock. A long day's work makes a long day short, and a short day's work makes my face long.
Third—Give me more than I expect, and I will give you more than you expect. I can afford to increase your pay if you increase my profits.
Fourth—You owe so much to yourself you cannot afford to owe anybody else. Keep out of debt.
Fifth—Dishonesty is never an accident. Good men, like good women, never see temptation when they meet it.
