Phone Call

"Do you remember that fellow you wanted us to hire?"

I did.

"I want you to know that he's been doing a fine job on that work crew. Just a fine job. Diligent. Always on time."

"You're not calling to tell me that, are you? There's something in your voice."

"Well, he was doing real well until yesterday morning when he stabbed a co-worker."

"Geez."

"Yeah, but don't worry. It looks like it was self-defense so we're not rushing to fire him."

"Thanks for the good news."

"I knew you'd appreciate it. We're doing our best over here."
