通往成功的道路
The Road to Success
安德鲁·卡内基 / Andrew Carnegie
It is well that young men should begin at the beginning and occupy the most subordinate positions. Many of the leading businessmen of Pittsburgh had a serious responsibility thrust upon then at the very threshold of their career. They were introduced to the broom， and spent the first hours of their business lives sweeping out the office. I notice we have janitors and janitresses now in offices， and our young men unfortunately miss that salutary branch of a business education. But if by chance the professional sweeper is absent any morning， the boy who has the genius of the future partner in him will not hesitate to try his hand at the broom. It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary. I was one of those sweepers myself.
