[QUOTE="ex, post: 61244"] I know that all you adept corporate animals have already internalized all of these little parables, but it is useful to occasionally review them just to ensure that you keep hitting those important fundamentals in your miserabl... I mean in your fulfilling careers. Three Corporate Lessons: 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. Moral of the story is: 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 havn'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 the 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 about a week, there he was perched at the top of the tree. Soon a farmer spotted the turkey and shot him out of the tree. Moral of the story: Bull:censored: 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 that the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and crapped on the bird. As the bird lay there in a 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. The Moral of the story is: 1) Not everyone who craps on you is your enemy. 2) Not everyone who gets you out of the crap is your friend. 3) If you're warm and happy in a pile of crap, keep your mouth shut.
