A young executive was leaving the office 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 important and my assistant

has left. Can you make this thing work?"

"Certainly", said the young man, flattered that the CEO had

asked him for help.

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 need two copies of that."
