Hot air ballon:
A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced
altitude and spotted a man 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 man 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. "Yes,
I am,"replied the man, "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 man below responded,
"You must be in Management!" "I am," replied the
balloonist, "but how did you know?" "Well," said the man,
"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.
And, ...the fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in
before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fault."
