So we're going through change.
Here are three lessons from large corporations to help you survive change..

Corportate Lesson #1

A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day.
A small rabbit saw the crow and asked him, "Could I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?"
The crow answered, "Sure, why not?"
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow and rested.
All of a sudden, a fox appeared.. jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story is.. to be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Corporate Lession #2

A turkey was chatting to a bull.

"I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the 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 found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating more dung, he reached the second branch.

Finally, after a fortnight, there he was, proudly perched at the top of the tree.

Soon, he was spotted by a farmer, who promptly shot the turkey out of the tree.

Moral of the story is.. bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.

Corporate Lesson #3

A bird was flying south during the winter. But it was so cold that the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it.

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it 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!

The morals of this story are..
Not everyone who drops shit on you is your enemy.
Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
And when you're in deep shit, keep your mouth shut.
