Employees of a company are all worried. Some are roaming around, some are in loud discussions during office time.

Some trainees, who had just joined, notice this and enquire about what happened to a senior employee. They ask, “What’s going on?”

“Terrorists have kidnapped our Boss. They’re asking for Rs10 crores ransom, otherwise they’re going to douse him with petrol and set him on fire. We’re going from desk to desk taking up a collection.”

One trainee asks, “How much is everyone giving, on average?”

“About one litre.”
