seven deadly sins page 14 by ric gustafson
Ben tried quickly to walk past Mr Firestone's office. Before he could, Rose stopped him. " Ben, Mr Firestone would like to see you". Ben knocked on the bosses door.
" Come in".
Ben walked into the office. Standing by the desk was Mr Firestone, Elaine and Ralph Johnson head of security.
" Sit down Ben". Mr Firestone walked over and began to stare out a window. " Ben, please take a look at the paper on my desk".
Ben took a hard look at it. It was a letter of resignation. " I don't follow Sir".
" Ben, I started this company on Christian morals". He turned away from the window. " I cannot allow an employee who does not follow that same moral code to destroy this company".
" Mr Firestone, I have tried to please you".
" Ben, I have given you so many chances".
" But Sir".
Mr Firestone raised his arm to silence his employee. " You have snubbed those chances in my face".
" Mr Firestone, I won't sign it".
He walked to his desk and took out some paperclipped papers. " Ben, do you remember signing this?".
" My action plan". Ben sighed. " Yes I did sign it".
" You did not do what I instructed you to do".
" Now what?".
" Ben, I am asking you to resign".
Ben thought for a moment. He knew he had no other choice. He signed the paper.
" Ralph, will you escort Mr Halsteen to the front door please?".
