April 24, 2017
Dear Readers,
Many people have warned of the dangers of pride throughout the centuries. Few take to heart those warnings until it is too late. The recent events described in this article only prove this once again.
This story picks up following the exciting events of the AI 2017 Tech Olympics. Of the members of the winning team, the Mean Machine, one member, standing too high, was destined for a fall. Yes, I am speaking of Marc, that famous setup tech who brought home four medals from the April 22, 2017 games. Pride was oozing from his pores as he walking into the warehouse Monday morning wearing all four medals around his neck.
Pride, known to blind even the wisest of men, lead Marc to do his work still wearing his medals.
Too little too late did he realize his folly. A wise man wrote long ago that pride comes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. If only he had taken it to heart. The very medals, of which Marc was so proud, were his downfall…
Caught by his pride (and his medals), Marc’s short career as a setup tech at Applied Imaging was over. A wide format machine box was still available for his burial. When asked for a comment, Marc’s co-worker K. wiped away his tears as he assured me that they were tears of laughter and not tears of sorrow.
We caution all our readers to learn from the mistakes of others. Don’t let this happen to you.
Thanks,
Marc
