The Ultimate Recommendation |
|
| You'll understand at the end... | |
| John Jones, the head of the company asked his manager to write a detailed employment review describing Bob Smith, one of his programmers. | |
| 1. Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found | |
| 2. hard at work in his cubicle. Bob works independently, without | |
| 3. wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never | |
| 4. thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always | |
| 5. finishes given assignments on time. Often Bob takes extended | |
| 6. measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee | |
| 7. breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no | |
| 8. vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound | |
| 9. knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be | |
| 10. classed as a high-caliber employee, the type which cannot be | |
| 11. dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Bob be | |
| 12. promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be | |
| 13. executed as soon as possible. | |
| Signed ... | |

| THIS MEMO WAS IMMEDIATELY SENT AFTERWARDS... | |

Way to go, Bob!
