During his college years, Sherman Rogers spent a summer in logging(伐木) camp. When the boss had to leave for
41 days, he put Rogers in charge(掌管).
“What shall I do if the men
42 to follow my orders?” Rogers asked. He thought of Tony, a worker who complained all day, gave the other men a
43 time.
“Fire（解雇） them,” the boss said. Then, as if reading Rogers’ mind, he added, “I suppose you are going to fire Tony if you get the
44 . I’d feel badly about that. I have been logging for 40 years. Tony is one of the best workers I’ve ever had. I know he hates everybody and
45 . But he comes in first and leaves last. There has not been an
46 for eight years on the hill where he works.”
The next day, Rogers went to Tony, “Tony, do you know I’m in charge here today?” Tony said yes. “I was going to fire you the first time we quarreled,
47 I want you to know I’m not,” he told Tony, adding
48 the boss had said.
When he finished, Tony dropped the things in his hand and tears went down his
49 .
“Why didn’t he tell me that eight years
50 ?”
That day Tony worked
51 than ever before – and he smiled!
Rogers went back to
52 after that summer. Twelve years later he met Tony again who was now boss for one of the largest logging companies in the West. Rogers asked him how he came to California and happened to be so
53 .
Tony replied, “Were it not for the one minute you talk to me back that day, I would kill somebody some day. One minute
54 my whole life.”
Have you got one minute to thank someone? One minute to appreciate(欣賞) her or him? One minute. It can make a
55 for a lifetime.
