Full Cup of Coffee
Rating: PG
Quality: (Quality: Unrated)
The young clerk's responsibilities included bringing the judge a hot
cup of coffee at the start of every day.
Each morning the judge was enraged that the coffee cup arrived
two-thirds full. The clerk explained that he had to rush to get the
coffee delivered while it was still hot, which caused him to spill
much of it along the way.
None of the judge's yelling and insults produced a full cup of
coffee, until he finally threatened to cut the clerk's pay by
one-third if he continued to produce one-third less than the judge
wanted.
The next morning he was greeted with a cup of coffee that was full
to the brim, and the next morning and the morning after that.
The judge couldn't resist gloating over his success and smugly
complimented the clerk on his new technique.
"Oh, there's not much to it," admitted the clerk happily, "I take
some coffee in my mouth right outside the coffee room, and spit it
back in when I get outside your office."
