The new manager walks into his office and, while settling into his new desk, finds 4 envelopes.
On one he finds the words "open me first," and the other three are numbered 1 to 3.
He opens the first envelope and finds a letter from his predecessor saying:
"These three envelopes will save you a world of trouble.
In case of emergency, please open these envelopes in sequential order;
envelope one first, envelope two second, and envelope three third."
The manager shrugs, puts the envelopes back, and forgets about them.
