Jack Nelson's Problem

As a new member of the Board of Directors for a local bank, Jack Nelson was being introduces to all the emplohees in the home office. When he was introduced to Ruth Johnsons, he was curious about her work and asked her what her machine did. Johnsons replied she did not know what the machine was called or what it did. she explained that she had been working there for only two months. She did however know precisely how to operate the machine. According to her Supervisor, she was an excellent employee. At one of the branch offices, the Supervisor in chare spoke to Nelson confidentially, telling him that 'something was wrong' but she didn't know what. For one thing, she explained, employee was too high and no sooner had one employee been put on the job than another one resigned. With customers to see and loans to be made, she explained, she had little time to work with the new employees as they came and went. All branch Supervisors hired their own employees without communication with the home office or other branches.
