the story “The brave little toaster”, but in their enthusiasm, they
unknowingly stepped on some of their direct superiors' toes by going
around them in their effort to get the project into motion. One of them
disliked it so much that when Lasseter and Wilhite presented their idea
to him, which he at that time was already aware of, he turned it down.
A few minutes after the meeting, Lasseter received a phone call telling
him that his job had been terminated.
