The Chief, a lion, was surprised to see that the ant was working

其他人监督。
He thought if the ant can produce so much without supervision, wouldn‟t she produce even more if she had
a supervisor!
他认为在沒有人监督的情况下，蚂蚁的生产力是如此的好；如果有人监督的话，那她的生产力应该会更
好才对!
So he recruited a
cockroach who had extensive experience as supervisor and who was famous for
writing excellent reports.因此他招募了有丰富经验的蟑螂作为监督员，蟑螂以擅长撰
写杰出的报告而闻名。

system.

monitored all phone calls.他招募了蜘蛛，让他来负责管理
档案和监管所有电话。
The lion was delighted with the cockroach's reports and asked him to produce graphs to describe production
rates and to analyse trends, so that he could use them for
presentations at
Board„s meetings.
狮子对蟑螂的报告感到非常的欣喜并要求他用图表描述生产率以及分

laser printer and ...

Optimisation Plan …

The Department where the ant works is now a sad place, where nobody laughs anymore and everybody has become upset...

Having reviewed the charges for running the ant‟s department , the lion found out that the production was much less than before.
