A boss sent a young worker on an errand(差事),"You go to the west street and buy me a calculator."
After a while, the worker returned empty handed. He explained that he didn't see anyone selling calculators on the road, but he saw one on the east street instead.
"You are such a fool! Why didn't you go there then?"
"But you didn't tell me to."
The boss yelled at him, but he whispered to his wife, "This guy is honest and obedient."
He then told the other worker to run the same errand on the west street again.
Somehow, the latter got the job done on the east street.
The boss raised his thumb and said, "You're a smart worker that I need." But he though to himself, "This guy is too smart to trust....."
