> The woman below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately

> "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

> 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
