read on. i got this as usual from my email . i think you will learn a little of something out of this.

Lesson One...

An eagle was sitting on a tree - resting...doing
nothing. A small
rabbit saw the eagle and asked him,
"Can I also sit like you and do nothing"?
The eagle answered, "Sure, why not"? So, the
rabbit sat on the ground
below the eagle and rested.
All of the 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 Two...

A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love
to be able to get
to the top of that tree; but, I haven't got the
energy",
sighed the turkey.

"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 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, on the fifth day, he found himself
proudly perched at the top.
There, he was promptly spotted by a farmer who
shot him out of the tree.


Management Lesson...Bull s h i t might get you to
the top;
but, it won't keep you there.


Lesson Three...

A little bird was flying South for the winter. It
was so cold, the
bird's wings froze and he fell to the ground in a
large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and
dropped some dung on him.
As the frozen bird
lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to
realize how warm it was.
The d u n g was actually thawing him out!
The bird 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 s h i t s on you is your
enemy.
2.) Not everyone who gets you out of s h i t is
your friend.
3.) And, when you're in deep s h i t it's best to
keep your mouth shut!!!


This concludes your two-minute management
course!!!
