THE 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?"
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 to 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 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: Bull**** 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, 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 come 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 in this story are:
1) Not everyone who drops **** on you is your enemy.
2) Not everyone who gets you out of **** is your friend.
3) When you're in deep ****, keep your mouth shut.

IN SUMMARY:

An organization is like a tree full of monkeys, all on different limbs
at different levels, some climbing up, some fooling around and some
simply just idling.... The monkeys on top look down and see a tree full
of smiling faces.... The monkeys on the bottom look up and see nothing but
********...

Any large organisation is like a cess pool.

The biggest turds always float to the top.
