He entered the office to find the chairman and the other eight directors seated solemnly around a table. He was invited to join them, which he did with trepidation.
As soon as he had sat down the chairman turned to the young man and asked aggressively, "Have you ever slept with Miss Foyt, my secretary?"
"No, certainly not" he replied.
"Are you absolutely sure?" asked the chairman.
"Absolutely! I've never laid a finger on her."
"You'd swear to that?"
"Yes sir, I swear I've never slept with your secretary."
"Good. Then you fire her."
