Corporate Fables

A crow was sitting in a tree, doing nothing all day.
A rabbit came a long and asked him, "Can I also be like you and do nothing all day long?"
The crow said, "Sure! Why not?"
So the rabbit sat and rested by the tree.
Suddenly, a fox came along, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be very high up.

A turkey was chatting with a bull.
"I would love to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."
The bull replied, "Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings? It is full of nutrients and will give you the energy you need to fly all the way up."
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it gave him enough energy to reach the top of the tree.
Soon, a farmer spotted the turkey and shot it out of the tree.
Moral: Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
