6) Hardworking and loyal

The conductor of a music group found it extremely difficult to prepare for an important performance, since members of the music group were never all present at the rehearsals. Then the last rehearsal before the performance came and again some of the members were not there. At the end of the rehearsal, the conductor said to all present members of the orchestra, “I wrote down the names of those who were absent from our various rehearsals. Here is the list." He pulled a piece of paper out of his jacket pocket and looked at it. "I see that the only one who worked hard and was loyal enough to be present every time was the drummer." The drummer blushed, got up and replied, "Well, I thought it was the only right thing to do because I can't be performing tomorrow."
