The boss called one of his employees into the office. "David," he said, "you've been with the company for a year. You started off in the post room, one week later you were promoted to a sales position, and one month after that you were promoted to district manager of the sales department. Just four short months later, you were promoted to vice-chairman."

"Thanks," said David.

"I suppose not," David said. "Thanks, Dad."
