Lesson Number : 1
******************
A crow was sitting on 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 : 2
******************
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 Lessons
------------------
1) Not everyone who drops shit 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, keep your mouth
shut!
Lesson Number : 3
******************
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 first branch
of the tree. The next day, after eating some more
dung, he reached the
second branch. Finally after a fortnight, 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
-----------------
Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep
you there.
