Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Digest Number 3677

`...And the other side of the coin...
Two salesmen were sent out by their employer (a shoe company) to a
'south-seas island'. After a week, the first one sent a wire home with the
message, "Please send me a ticket to get home. The natives here don't even
wear shoes". Standing in line behind him was the other salesman, who wired
the home office with this message, "Send me a shipment of 2,000 shoes! The
poor folks here don't have any shoes to wear!" Who do you suppose was the
best salesman???
