Lessons

Lesson One...

An eagle was sitting on a tree... just resting... doing nothing.
A 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 a sudden a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Management principle number one: To sit around doing nothing, you
better 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?" suggested the
bull.
"They're packed with nutrients".
The turkey pecked at a lump of that and found it actually gave him
enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more, he reached the second branch.
Finally, on the fifth day, he found himself proudly perched at the
very
top.
There, he was promptly spotted by a farmer who shot him out of the
tree.

Management Lesson Number Two...Bull sh*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 dropping on
him.
As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of that,
it began to realize how warm it was; that 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's song and came to investigate.
The cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dropping and
promptly
dug him out and ate him.


Management lessons three, four and five...

Not everyone who sh*s on you is your enemy.

Not everyone who gets you out of sh*t is your friend.

When you're in deep sh*t it's best to keep your mouth shut
