Bruce Palmer had worked for Moss and McAdams (M&M) for six years and was just promoted to account manager. His first assignment was to lead an audit of Johnsonville Trucks. He was quite pleased with the five accountants who had been assigned to his team, especially Zeke Olds.

Imagine you are on the edge of your seat waiting in desperation for the Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show to begin. The lights go dim; the crowd falls silent. You can hear only the rumble of galloping horses. The crowd grows rambunctious as a single spotlight flickers on. Standing in the center of the arena is the one and only Annie Oakley.

You probably wouldn’t want to know them if you were an average
