There's a similar story about Admiral Rickover. He was interviewing an officer who had applied for nuke school, and he told the applicant "You have two minutes to make me mad. Go." The officer began counting down from 120. At the 30 second mark, he began shoving the contents of Rickover's desk to the floor, breaking several items in the process. Rickover lept up and yelled "Ok, ok--I'm mad!" The officer was accepted into nuke school.
