HANDS UP ALL THOSE WHO AGREE!!
A man in a hot air balloon, realising he was lost, reduced altitude and
spotted a woman below. He descended further and
shouted to the lady "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I
would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know
where I am"
The woman below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, hovering
approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're
between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees
west longitude."
You must be in I.T.," said the balloonist.
" Actually I am," replied the woman, "How did you know?"
Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you have told me is
technically correct but I've no idea what to make of
your information and the fact is I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not
been much help at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip."
The woman below responded, "You must be in Management."
"I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well," said the woman, "you don't know where you are or where you're
going. You have risen to where you are due to a
large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you've no idea how
to keep and you expect people beneath you to
solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position
you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's
my fault..."
