Aint this the
truth!!!
A man in a hot air balloon realized 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 are in a hot air balloon
hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees
north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."
"You must be an engineer," said the balloonist.
I am," replied the woman, "How did you
know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything
you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your
information, and the fact is I am still lost. Frankly, you've not been much
help so far."
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 are going. You have risen to where you are due to a
large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you have 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"
