Jim and the boys were having trouble. They were working on repairs on an old mansion when their boss visited. He always comes across as a difficult man. He told them they were not working fast enough, and they argued with him. They wanted to get along with him so they finally said, “Let’s talk it over.” Their boss agreed and suddenly he stood up and left. Fifteen minutes later, he returned and he had brought back a pizza to share with them. They decided that he was easy to get along with after all.
