Story

One day Mr. Johnson was going to be interviewed. He had applied for the fire-fighter and it would be interviewed the day after.

“So, Mr. Johnson, it seems you have all the skills needed”, Mr. Grant, the interviewer, said “but why do you want to became a fire-fighter?”.

“Well, I had an terrible accident last year”, Mr. Johnson replied “my house burnt I’m alive by a miracle”.

“Oh, I’m going to employ him”, Mr. Grant thought “he has all the skills needed and it seems he is motivated by his accident”.

“How did it happen?”, he asked, but Mr. Johnson looked like he wouldn’t speak about that accident; “I’m sorry, if you don’t want to talk about it don’t do it” Mr. Grant immediately said.

“No, I will”, Mr. Johnson replied “well... , I was doing some experiments with the gunpowder and I forgot the day before I had left a petrol can near there”.
