Supervisors and managers

We couldn’t resist this little piece of wisdom or amusing story – depending on your point of view. Any views suggested or expressed may or may not be the views of the Vertikal Press or its employees - 

A large mining company working in a remote area of the world recently hired several cannibals.

"You are all part of our team now", said the HR manager during the welcoming briefing. "You get all the usual benefits and you can go to the cafeteria for something to eat, but please don't eat any of the other employees".

The cannibals promised they would not.

Four weeks later their boss remarked, "You're all working very hard, and I'm very satisfied with you. However, one of our Admin girls has disappeared. Do any of you know what happened to her?"

The cannibals all shook their heads indicating "No".

After the boss had left, the leader of the cannibals said to the others, "Which one of you idiots ate the Admin chick?"

A hand rose hesitantly, to which the leader of the cannibals continued, "You fool!!!!! For four weeks we've been eating managers and supervisors and no one noticed anything, but Noooo….., you had to go and eat someone who actually works!!!!"
