Moral of the story : "Think all colleagues are same and that everyone iscapable of doing the same work. Always share the load equally. Don'tever act smart in front of your Boss and never try getting more credit.Don't feel happy when your colleague is under pressure." It doesn'tmatter if you are A or B, for the Boss you shall always be a Donkey. Andmost importantly, never work hard, work cleverly.Interesting Workplace facts: A great lesson from a simple storyof Horse and Goat There was a farmer who had a Horse and aGoat. One day, the Horse became ill andfarmer called the Veterinarian, who said: Well,your Horse has a virus. He must take thismedicine for three days. I will come back onthe 3rd day and if he's not better, we have toput him down. Nearby, the Goat listenedclosely to their conversation.

Next day, they gave him the medicine and left.The Goat approached the Horse and said: Bestrong, my friend. Get up or else they are going to put you to sleep!

On the second day, they gave him the medicine and left. The Goat cameback and said: Come on buddy, get up or else you are going to die!Come on, I will help you get up. Let's go! One, two, three!

On the third day, they came to give him the medicine and theVeterinarian said: Unfortunately, we are going to have to put him downtomorrow. Otherwise, the virus might spread and infect the otherHorses. After they left, the Goat approached the Horse and said: Listenpal, it's now or never! Get up, come on! Have courage! Come on! Getup! That's it, slowly! Great! Come on, one, two, three! Good. Now faster,come on, Fantastic! Run, run more! Yes! You did it, you are a champion!

The Horse got up with tremendous effort. After somemore encouragement from the Goat, he trotted and then galloped.

All of a sudden, the farmer came back, saw the Horse running in thefield and began shouting: It's a miracle! My Horse is cured. We musthave a grand party. Let's kill the Goat!

Moral of the story : This often happens in the workplace. Nobody trulyknows which employee actually deserves the merit of success, or who'sactually contributing the necessary support to make things happen.

Remember: Learning to live without recognition is a skill! So, if anyoneever tells you that your work is unprofessional, then remember:

Amateurs built the Ark [which saved all the species] and professionalsbuilt the Titanic [all died tragically].Interesting Workplace facts: Always let your boss have the firstsay
