Take a stress break....
Once upon a time there was a shepherd tending his sheep at the edge of a
country road. A brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee screeches to a halt next
to
him. The driver, a young man dressed in a Briani suit, Cerutti shoes,
Ray-Ban sunglasses, Jovial Swiss wrist watch, and a Bhs tie gets out and
asks the shepherd, "If I can guess how many sheep you have, will you
give me
one of them?"
The shepherd looks at the young man, then looks at the
sprawling field of sheep and says, "Okay."
The young man parks the SUV, connects his notebook and wireless modem,
enters a NASA site, scans the ground using his GPS, opens a database
and 60
Excel tables filled with algorithms, then prints a 150 page report on
his
high tech mini printer. He then turns to the shepherd and says, "You
have
exactly 1,586 sheep here."
The shepherd answers, "That's correct! You can have your sheep." The young
man takes one of the animals and puts it in the back of his vehicle. The shepherd looks at him and asks, "Now, if I guess your profession, will you pay me back in kind?"
The young man answers, "Sure."
The shepherd says, "You are a consultant."
"Exactly! How did you know?" asks the young man.
"Very simple," answers the shepherd. "First, you came here without being called.
Second, you charged me a fee to tell me something I already knew.
Third, you don't understand anything about my business - and I'd really like to have my dog back."

That is toooo funny!
I dumped a few customers because they were
consultants not because of their profession, but because they wanted to squeeze a deal out of my time and consulting and not pay me for the consultation!

Here's what I found today...
MOMMY'S LITTLE ANGEL
An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into mischief, finally asked him, "How do you expect to get into Heaven?"
The boy thought it over and said,"Well, I'll just run in and out, and in and out, and keep slamming the door until St. Peter says, 'For Heaven's sake, Jimmy, come in or stay out!'"
A STORMY RELATIONSHIP
One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?"
The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. "I can't " she said. "I have to sleep in Daddy's room."
A long silence was broken at last by his shaky little voice: "The big sissy."
LOSING FACE
Finding one of her students making faces at others on the playground. Ms. Smith stopped to gently reprove the child. Smiling sweetly, the Sunday School teacher said, "Bobby, when I was a child, I was told that if I made ugly faces, it would freeze and I would stay like that."
Bobby looked up and replied, "Well, Ms. Smith, you can't say you weren't warned."
