Picture this! There is a play school for kids, where the head master Peter considers safety as the utmost priority. He hires three security guards. No bad incident happens during his tenure. The board owning the school is happy.

Peter retires one day and there comes a replacement Jack. He prepares a list of areas where he can cut costs. He thinks three security guards are overhead and fires two of them (total salary saving 24000 per annum). He goes to the board and gives them the annual savings figures. The board is quite impressed and is inadvertently cursing his predecessor.

Now, a mishap happens when the one security guard is gone for a leak and a kid runs out of the main gate and meets with an accident. The parents of the kid threaten to sue the school. Jack intervenes and promises a compensation of 50000 to drop any charge on the school. He goes back to the board and explains how well he handled the situation. The board as usual is all praises for the head master for his crisis management skills.

Jeff next calls all the parents and explains how he is taking steps to increase the safety of the school and announces the addition of two new security guards. The parents are happy and praise the head master’s foresight and concern for their children’s safety.

Jeff is a now hero! Nobody remembers Peter.
