Hostage

A man named Mr.Shortemper had a job at a business that makes designs for and produces kabob sticks. The company, even though very successful, was losing money and needed to downsize some of the workers. Mr.Shortemper was one of the workers who was fired.

Mr.Shortemper had a very, very short temper. He lost it all the time. What he decided to do was go after the company's president, Mr.Wisewithmoney. He didn't know what the president or his family looked like, but he knew the address where he lived. He broke into the house one day and took Mr.Wisewithmoney's wife and daughter hostage. The president was informed, and got to his house as soon as possible. He asked for the bullhorn the police had, and said one thing that made Mr.Shortemper give up. What did he say?































Answer

The president told him that those people weren't his family, but rather his maid and the maid's daughter. Mr.Shortemper, not knowing what his family looked like, thought he was telling the truth and decided he wouldn't get a point across by taking the maid and her daughter hostage. Of course he was arrested and put into a psychiatric hospital.
