LESSON ONE
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing
nothing.
A small 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 Lesson - To be sitting and doing nothing,
you must 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,"
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
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, the turkey was proudly perched at the
top of the tree.
He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.
Management Lesson - Bull shit 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 froze and fell to the
ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and
dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there
in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how
warm he 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 Lesson -
(1) Not everyone who shits 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, it's best to
keep your mouth shut!
This ends your two minute management course.
