"Mr. Hackworth, you are a very clever fellow—
as I already gathered from your demanding and very responsible 
position—but I am ashamed to tell you that your excellently devious plan 
may not work. My supervisor is a cruel taskmaster with no regard for human 
feelings. To be quite frank—and I tell you this in all 
confidence—he is not entirely without ethical blemishes."
