John and Bobby joined a sale company together just after leaving college the same year. They both worked very hard. After several years, however, the boss made Bobby the manager of the company but John remained a common worker. John could not be silent any more, so he passed his resignation(辞呈)to the boss and told the boss that he did not know how to treat(对待) the workers fairly but only love those who are talkative.

The boss knew that John worked very hard for the years. He thought a moment and said, “Thank you for your advice, but I hope you will do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you will change your decision and take back your resignation.”John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find anyone selling watermelon in the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found a man selling watermelon. The boss asked how much it cost per kg ? John shook his head and went back to the market to ask and returned to tell the boss$1.2 per kg.

Boss told John to wait a second, and he called Bobby to come to his office. He asked Bobby to go and find anyone selling watermelon in the market. Bobby went, returned and said, “Boss, only one person selling watermelon. $1.2 per kg, $10 for10 kg, he has in all 340 melons. On the table 58 melons, every melon weighs about 2 kg, bought from the South two days ago, they are fresh and red, good quality(质量).”
