Lesson Number One

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 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 havent got the energy.Well,

why

dont you nibble on some of my droppings? replied the bull. They 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 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?

Bullshit 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

ame

to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird unde

the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him!>

Management Lesson?

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!
