Three Quick Lessons



Lesson 1: An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, can I also sit on my butt 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, saw the rabbit, and ate it.

Management Lesson: TO BE SITTING ON YOUR BUTT AND DOING NOTHING, YOU MUST BE SITTING
VERY HIGH UP.



Lesson 2: 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 haven't got the energy.

Well, why don't you nibble on some of my manure droppings replied the bull. They are packed with nutrients. The turkey pecked at a lump of manure, 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, after a fourth night, he was proudly perched at the top of the tree. Soon he was spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of the tree.

Management Lesson: BULL SHIT MIGHT GET YOU TO THE TOP, BUT IT WON'T KEEP YOU THERE.



Lesson 3: 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 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 SHITS ON YOU IS YOUR ENEMY.
2) NOT EVERYONE WHO GETS YOU OUT OF SHIT IS YOUR FRIEND.
3) WHEN YOU'RE IN DEEP SHIT, IT IS BEST TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!
