Once upon a time, a washerman had two donkeys, let us say Donkey-A and Donkey-B.
Donkey-A felt it was very energetic and could do better than the other. It always tried to pull the washerman's attraction over it by taking more load and walking fast in front of him.
Innocent Donkey-B is normal, so it will walk normally, irrespective of the washerman's presence. After a period of time, the washerman started pressurizing Donkey-B to be like Donkey-A.
But Donkey-B, unable to walk fast, got continuous punishment from the washerman. It was crying and told personally to Donkey-A, "Dear friend, only we two are here, why compete with each other... we can carry an equal load at a normal speed."
That made Donkey-A all the more energetic, and the next day it told the washerman that it could carry more load and even run fast.
Obviously, the happier washerman looked at Donkey-B, his blood pressure raised, and he started kicking Donkey-B. The next day with a smile, Donkey-A carried more load and started running fast.
But it was breathtaking for Donkey-B, and it couldn't act that way. The washerman was frustrated, so he harassed Donkey-B terribly, and finally, it fell down hopelessly.
Then Donkey-A felt itself as supreme and happily started carrying more load with great speed. But now the load of Donkey-B is also being carried by Donkey-A, and still, it has to run fast. For some period, it did, finally, due to fatigue, it got tired and started feeling the pain.
But the washerman expected more from Donkey-A. It also tried its best but couldn't cope with his owner's expectations. The washerman got angry with Donkey-A also and started harassing it to take more load. Donkey-A was crying for a long time and then tried its best but couldn't meet the owner's satisfaction. Finally, the day came when due to frustration, the washerman killed Donkey-A and went searching for some other donkeys.
It's an endless story...
But the moral of the story in corporate and social life is,
"Think all colleagues are the same and that everyone is capable... Always share the load equally... Don't ever act smart in front of your boss and never try to take credit... Don't feel happy when your colleague is under pressure."
It doesn't matter if we are A or B; otherwise, we will be treated as the DONKEY!!!

Think all colleagues are the same and that everyone is capable. Always share the workload equally. Don't ever act smart in front of your boss and never try to take credit for others' work. Don't feel happy when your colleague is under pressure.

It is really true. That is what is happening in most of the business sectors. Sometimes, like Donkey-A, they try to expose themselves, but finally, they get fired. They should share the workload equally. Sometimes, oversmartness will lead to failure.
