    3  Minute Management Course

    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

    Bullshit 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 * is your friend.
    (3)  And when you're in deep *
    , it's best to keep your mouth shut!

    This ends your three-minute management course.
