A woman in a hot air balloon realised she was lost. She reduced altitude >and spotted a guy below. She 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 guy below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately >30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude >and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude." >"You must be in IT," said the balloonist. >"I am," replied the guy, "How did you know?" >"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically >correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information and the fact is >I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, >you've delayed my trip." >The guy below responded, "You must be in Management." >"I am", replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?" >"Well," said the guy, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. >You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You >made a promise, which you've 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.
