> > 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

> the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the
>rabbit and
> > ate it.

> > Management Lesson

>high up.

>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

> > 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 [what???] is your friend.
> > (3) And when you're in deep [what???], it's best to keep your mouth shut!
