The Booth Returning home after work, my brother saw a telephone booth propped up against the rear entrance to his apartment building. Since Nick works for the telephone company, he knew that booths were often stolen from street corners and
were very expensive to replace. He called his supervisor to see if this one was stolen, and they decided that Nick
should take it to the nearest company compound.
His supervisor commended Nick on his conscientiousness.
The booths are large and heavy, so Nick had to get a company truck and a few employees to help him move it.
With the task accomplished, he returned to his apartment--and groaned in dismay when he saw a large notice
on the rear entrance: "IMPORTANT. A phone booth was left in the parking lot with the manager's permission.
Please contact suite 204 if you've seen it, as it's being used as a movie prop."
