If you've ever worked for a boss who reacts before getting the facts and thinking things through, you will love this!

Arcelor-Mittal Steel, feeling it was time for a shakeup, hired a new CEO. The new boss was determined to rid the company of all slackers.



On a tour of the facilities, the CEO noticed a guy leaning against a wall. The room was full of workers and he wanted to let them know that he meant business.


He asked the guy, "How much money do you make a week?" 


A little surprised, the young man looked at him and said, "I make $400 a week. Why?"
 


The CEO said, "Wait right here." He walked back to his office, came back in two minutes, and handed the guy $1,600 in cash and said, "Here's four weeks' pay. Now GET
OUT and don't come back." Feeling pretty good about himself the CEO looked around the room and asked, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-ball did here?"

 



From across the room a voice said, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's."

True Story.....

As the maintenance man, mechanic, and fix-it-all in a factory with over 200 machines running, I was sitting at my desk one morning drinking a cup of coffee. The company president came through my shop. 15 minutes later he came back through. The third time through he stopped and asked, "Is that all you have to do"?

I replied, "Yes, aren't you glad"?
He looked out across all the machines running smoothly, turned back and said, "Yes, I guess I am".
He never again mentioned me doing nothing...

Me too Jim, but I couldn't remember where.
