Inventory Management Techniques From The Military
A young 2nd Lieutenant was in the intelligence center of the Army. The building in which the intelligence center was housed also contained a number of other military units in the intelligence business. The lieutenant’s commander, then a lieutenant colonel, had appointed the young lieutenant a supply officer. A short time later, when the lieutenant colonel was promoted to full colonel, his first official act was to summon the supply officer. He said, “Lieutenant, as you know, my new rank demands a new chair for my desk.” It is true that the chairs of lieutenant colonels and colonels are the same, but the tops are different. The top of a colonel’s chair is four inches wider than that of a light colonel and it has a full leather upholstery instead of PVC.
