Lesson in Employee Relationship

Steve was in his early 50s, retired and had started a second career. However, he just couldn't seem to get to work on time. Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. However, he was a good worker, really clever, so the owner was in a quandary about how to deal with it. Finally, one day he called Steve into the office for a talk.

"Steve, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic. You do a top class job, but your being late so often is quite a worry."

"Yes, I realize that, sir, and I am working on it," replied Steve.

"I'm pleased to hear that, you are a team player. It's odd though, you're coming in late. I know you're retired from the Royal Navy. What did they say if you came in late there?"

"They said, 'Good morning, Admiral.'"
