"Let me get the facts straight." The powerful executive said to the quivering scientist who looked younger than 23. "You're saying that our new pet food formula should be held back another two months?" The executive said, quivering the frail young man nodded his head to signify a yes. The executive gave him a look of pure hatred as he walked closer.
"This is the third time we've had to do this Mr. Williams. We've had the orders booked for quite sometime from stores who want this new innovative feed we promised, if we delay them another two months our company will lose money. Lots and lots of money Mr. Williams. zoos want the food, pet stores want the food, even super stores and grocery stores want it. You want to disappoint all those people?" The executive asked, Mr. Williams started to stutter.
"Well...s-s-sir..we c-can't release this formula yet....it has s-s-s-some unpredictable effects when tested on these animals right here." Mr. Williams said as he pointed with a shaky finger to one of the cages. Inside the cage were two dead hamsters, the executive walked up to the cage and tapped it. He turned around and looked at Mr. Williams.
"Their dead, is it poisonous?" He asked, Mr. Williams shook his head. "No sir, the formula's not poisonous. The problem occured when we took the feed away from the animals for a night. The animals panicked and began to get aggressive. We have video footage of how aggressive they got if....." The executive put his hand over Williams' mouth.
"Mr. Williams, if this product is not poisonous than we have no choice than to sell it. Ready or not this feed is being shipped to all our clients worldwide. If we don't our company will go bankrupt, do you understand Mr. Williams?" The executive took his hand of off the mans mouth and nooded, the executive smiled.
"Glad to see that you're on the boat Mr. Williams."
