The Boss, Wally, Dilbert and Alice sit at a conference table. The
Boss says, "Here are some money-saving tips from headquarters." The
Boss reads from a list, "'When calling long distance, use short
words." The Boss continues to read, "'If everyone did this, our
fifty-billion dollar company could save nine hundred dollars per
year.'" The Boss reads, "'Tip two: For faxes, use Sans Serif fonts.
They transmit faster. Annual saving could exceed three hundred
dollars." The Boss says, "Next item on the agenda, remember I'll be
in Switzerland next week on a fact-finding trip." The Boss
continues, "If you need to call me at my four star hotel, be sure to
use short words." Dilbert whispers to Alice, "You might want to save
those short words until he's on his clue-finding trip." The Boss
stands in his hotel room in Switzerland. He holds the phone and
listens to someone cursing on the other end. He says, "Those are NOT
all short words."
