fearlessly--with
his eyes on the future, putting everything else second to his work--with supreme, sound confidence in his own ability-- Ah! Shucks--It's Impossible. EMPLOYER (to clerk)--"If that bore, Smithers, comes in, tell him I'm out--and don't be working or he'll know you're lying." _The Ten Commandments_ (_By A Wise Employer_) First--Don't lie. It wastes my time and yours. I am sure to catch you in the end, and that will be the wrong end. Second--Watch your work, not the clock. A long day's work makes a long day short, and a short day's work makes my face long. Third--Give me more than I expect, and I will give you more than you expect. I can afford to increase your pay if you increase my profits. Fourth--You owe so much to yourself you cannot afford to owe anybody else. Keep out of debt. Fifth--Dishonesty is never an accident. Good men, like good women, never see temptation when they meet it. Sixth--Mind your own business, and in time you'll have a business of your own to mind. |
