SOME WORK RELATED LESSONS

LESSON 1:

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: To be sitting and doing nothing,
you must be sitting
very, 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 droppings?"
replied the bull
"They're 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 fortnight,
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.

Moral of the story: Bullshit 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, that 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!

The Morals of this story:
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!
