Efficiency expert, Banta, concluded his lecture with a note of caution. "You need to be careful about trying these techniques at home. "
"Why?" asked somebody from the audience.
"I watched my wife`s routine at breakfast for years," Banta explained. "She made lots of trips between the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying a single item at a time. One day I told her, `Why don`t you try carrying several things at once?`"
"Did it save time?" the guy in the audience asked.
"Actually, yes," replied Banta, "It used to take her 20 minutes to make breakfast. Now I do it in seven."
