Mike:  Lenny, It’s 5AM I’m not sure how much more I can take of this. I’m just going to shut my eyes for a few minutes.

Mike slowly closes his eyes still hearing Lenny yammering on and dozes off..

Mike is in a drowsy state

Trump: You know what a project manager does, don’t you?

Mike: Of course, a Project Manager is like a jack-of-all-trades and oversees the successful planning implementation and execution of a project.

Trump: Ok. Now, name 3  of the many things a project manager can do?

“What you need with Lenny and what you continually have”

Mike:  Arguments and more arguments?

Trump:  Think – Mike! Think MacEwan!

Mike thinks, surprisingly he’s cool calm and collected, grabs his computer and looks up the quote. Mike then reads the quote.

Mike:  “The 4Ps that make up the Marketing Mix should be 6. They forgot Patience and Persistence”

Trump: Congratulations Mike – You’re Hired ! Lenny… You’re Fired!
