The manager of a factory recently engaged a new man and gave
instructions to the foreman to instruct him in his duties. A few days
afterward the manager inquired whether the new man was progressing with
his work.
The foreman, who had not agreed very well with the man in question,
exclaimed angrily:
"Progressing! There's been a lot of progress. I have taught him
everything I know and he is still an ignorant fool."
