The story

At an advertising firm, office manager Seaver is instructed by the boss, J.G. Carpenter, to fire the next employee who shows up late and to reward a particular employee, meek and mild-mannered clerk Arthur Ferguson Jones, with a raise, as he is never late. That morning, when Jones oversleeps and shows up late for work for the first time, Seaver is unsure whether to fire him or give him a raise.
