Lesson Number One:
A crow was sitting in a tree, doing nothing all day.
A small rabbit saw the
crow and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do
nothing all day long?
The crow answered: "Sure, why not."
So the rabbit sat on the ground below
the crow and rested. All of a sudden, a fox
appeared, jumped on the rabbit
and ate it.
Management Lesson?
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting
very, very high up.
=======================================
Lesson Number Two:
A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to
be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey,
"but I haven't got the energy."
"Well, why don't you nibble on some of my
droppings?" replied the bull.
"They're packed with nutrients."
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that
it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch
of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the
second branch.
Finally after a fourth night, there he was proudly perched at the top of the
tree.
Soon he was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of the
tree.
Management Lesson?
Bull shit might get you to the top, but it won't
keep you there.
======================================
Lesson Number Three:
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze
and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow
came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay
there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was.
The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm
and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of
cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Management Lesson?
1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!
Here endeth your management course.
