The Dragon's Keep

a management course

bahahaha...Frank posted this on Probetalk. some wording has been changed to protect the innocent. ;P

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 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, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Management Lesson:
To be sitting on your butt and doing nothing, you must
be sitting 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 manure droppings?"
replied the bull. "They're 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 promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the
turkey out of the tree.
Management Lesson:
Bull crap 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 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 craps on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of crap is your
friend.
(3) And when you're in deep crap, it's best to keep
your mouth
shut!

This ends your two-minute management course
