I had several bosses like this. 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 shake-up, 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 his quick, decisive action to set a new tone of Accountability; 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." |
