One day de cochore was standing near de door of Burnham office when he see a security official come out and start mumbling, “Dat power drunk idiot who believes he knows everything. I don’t know why he don’t jump through a window and die”
De chochre went and told Burnham what the official said and Burnham sent for de man. He asked de man “When you left here this morning, you were mumbling something about a power drunk idiot who believes he knows everything. Just who were you referring to?”
Without missing a beat de security man answered “I was referring to Jagan, Sir!”
Burnham then told him to go and called in back de cochore and asked him, “When this morning you heard de security official refer to a power drunk idiot who believes he knows everything, who did YOU think he was referring to?”
