A young executive was leaving the office late one evening 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 here, and my secretary has gone for the night. Can
you make this thing work for me?"
"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..."

Funny to read about but I think if I was that young executive, I'd walk out the door and keep on walking.....viking33 wrote:A young executive was leaving the office late one evening when he
