How many Omron employees does it take to change a
light bulb?

An engineer to notice that the light bulb is out, a
manager to write a work order, a secretary to mail the
work order, an estimator to figure the cost to the
company, a department supervisor to approve the
expense, an accountant to charge the correct
department, a union employee to set up the ladder,
another union employee to remove the old bulb, another
union employee to carry the new bulb to the site,
another union employee to insert the new bulb, another
union employee to flip the light switch, a union
supervisor to make sure that no union regulations are
violated, an assistant union supervisor to make coffee
for the union supervisor, a Quality Assurance
representative to assure us that it's a quality light
bulb, an ISO 9001 representative to insure that the
bulb was installed according to specific, traceable
documentation, and an executive to congratulate
everyone for working efficiently as a team to
accomplish this monumental task that demonstrates our
"total solutions" approach to customers' needs which
will contribute to the company's continued growth and
increase in shareholder value.
