From another group:


Recently, a large corporation hired several cannibals to increase their
diversity, "You are all part of our team now," said the HR rep during the
welcoming briefing. "You get all the usual benefits and you can go to the
cafeteria for something to eat, but don't eat any employees."

The cannibals promised they would not. Four weeks later their boss
remarked, "You're all working very hard and I'm satisfied with your work.
We have noticed a marked increase in the whole company's performance.
However, one of our secretaries has disappeared. Do any of you know what
happened to her?" The cannibals all shook their heads "No."

After the boss had left, the leader of the cannibals said to the others,
"Which one of you idiots ate the secretary?" A hand rose hesitantly. "You
fool!" the leader continued. "For four weeks we've been eating managers
and no one noticed anything. But NOOOooo, you had to go and eat someone
who actually does something."

If it was good enough for the Neanderthals, it's good enough for "a
large corporation"...
