Humour minute in 507 JFW

Major Hakkinen is teaching Flying Officer Elma Leivonen (37th Suomus Misfits Sq.) how to issue reprimands to her subordinates.

- But I can't, Major! It’s so rude and scary! - Elma cried in fear.

- Take a piece of paper and write it down. It's not scary on paper, - Hakkinen replied calmly.

Elma took the paper, but her pen trembled, unable to form even a single letter.

- Write the most polite and gentle reprimand you can manage, - Hakkinen insisted patiently.

An hour later, Elma produced a sheet covered in multiple repetitions of "I'm sorry!"

- Good. Now, try to write something... a bit stronger.

The next sheet was filled with "Please, forgive me!!!"

- You did a good job, Elma. One more thing to do would be to make sure it's your subordinates who are writing such notes to you.
