Thank you for submitting the resumes of the 12 men you have picked for managerial positions in your new organization. All have now taken our battery of tests. We have run the results through our computer and also arranged personal interviews for each with our psychologist and vocational
aptitude consultant.

It is the staff opinion that most of your nominees are lacking in background, education and vocational aptitude of the type of enterprise you are undertaking. They do not have the team concept.

Simon Peter is emotionally unstable and given to fits of tempter. Andrew has absolutely no qualities of leadership. The two brothers, James and John, placed personal interest above company loyalty. Thomas demonstrates a skeptical attitude that would tend to undermine morale. Matthew has been blacklisted by the Jerusalem Better Business Bureau. James, the son of Alphaus, and Thaddaeus definitely have radical leanings, and they both registered a high score on the manic-depressive scale.

One of the candidates, however, shows great potential. He is a man of ability and resourcefulness, meets people well, has a keen business mind and has contacts in high places. He is highly motivated, ambitious and responsible. We recommend Judas Iscariot as your controller and right-hand
man.

We wish you every success in your new venture.
