The new manager walks into his office and, while settling into his new desk,
finds 4 envelopes. On one he finds the words "open me first," and the other
three are numbered 1 to 3.

He opens the first envelope and finds a letter from his predecessor saying:
"These three envelopes will save you a world of trouble. In case of
emergency, please open these envelopes in sequential order; envelope one
first, envelope two second, and envelope three third."

The manager shrugs, puts the envelopes back, and forgets about them.

Six months later, the workers go on strike. The company closes, and is
losing money fast.

After a long night negotiating with the union, he remembers the 3 envelopes.
So he opens the first one and it says: "Blame me, your predecessor for every
thing".

Wonderful idea he thinks, and indeed it works and the crisis comes to its
end. His job is saved, and everybody's happy.

A few months later, another strike hits. He goes to the drawer and opens the
second envelope. It reads, "Blame the government for everything".

It works like a charm, and he breathes a sigh of relief as his job is, once
again, saved.

A month later the workers declare another strike. The manager goes to the
third envelope and it reads, "Prepare 4 new envelopes".
