A man in a hot air balloon was travelling happily through the sky when he suddenly realised he was completely lost. He saw a man below on the ground and brought the balloon lower until he could shout down. - Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him in half an hour, but I dont know where I am. - You are in a hot air balloon approximately 10.5 metres above the ground. You are between 39 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 58 and 60 degrees west longitude. - You must be an engineer. - I am. How did you know? - Well, everything you told me sounds great but I really didnt understand it and I am still lost. - And you must be a manager. - I am. How did you know? - Well, you dont know where you are or where you are going. You made a promise which you cant keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. Ive given you clear information which you dont understand. You are in the same situation as before you asked me, but now, somehow, its all my fault. Borrowed from British Council Czech Republic
