Title: A joke !
Post by: willyboy on 12 February 2009, 22:57:17
 A man in a hot air balloon realised he was lost. He reduced altitude and
> spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted, "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 Information Technology," said the balloonist.
> "I am," replied the woman, "how did you know?"
>
> "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is probably
> 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 Senior 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 f**king fault :y :y

Sums it up Willy. Thank god i don't work in an office. I'm happy driving my truck but sometimes arrive at my destination to be greeted by some twerp who asks me for reference nos etc.  No point in trying to deal with him, it'll take ages, wait for the yardman/forklift driver & he'll know exactly what you're there for.
     Any business needs white & blue collar workers but never the twain should meet. ::)
