Once upon a time a Waterman was bringing up two donkeys.
Let us say Donkey-A and Donkey-B.
Donkey-A felt it was very energetic and could do better
than the other. It always tried to pull the waterman's attraction over
it by taking more load and walking fast in front of him. Innocent Donkey-B
is normal, so it will walk normal, irrespective of the waterman's presence.
After a period of time,Waterman started pressurizing
Donkey-B to be like Donkey-A. But Donkey-B unable to walk fast, got
continuous punishment from waterman. It was crying and told personally
to Donkey-A "Dear friend, only we two are here, why to compete
with each other....we can carry equal load at normal speed -".
That made Donkey-A all the more energetic and next day it told the waterman
that it can carry more load and even it can run fast also.
Obviously happier waterman looked at Donkey-B.., his
BP raised and he started kicking Donkey-B. Next day with smile,Donkey-A
carried more load and started running fast. But it was breathtaking
for Donkey-B and it couldn't act that way....But the waterman was frustrated,
so he harassed Donkey-B terribly,and finally it fell down hopelessly.
Then Donkey-A felt itself as a supreme and happily started carrying
more load with great speed. But now the load of the Donkey-B is also
being carried by Donkey-A., and still it has to run fast.
For some period it did, finally due to fatigue it got
tired and started feeling the pain. But waterman expected more from
Donkey-A. It also tried best,but couldn't cope up with his owners demand.
The Waterman got angry with Donkey-A also and started harassing to take
more load... Donkey-A was crying for long time and then tried its best...But
it couldn't meet the owner's satisfaction. Finally the day came when
due to frustration the waterman killed Donkey-A and went for searching
some other donkeys.
It's an endless story..........
But the moral of the story in Corporate life is......,
"Think all project mates are same and that everyone
is capable....Always share the Load equally.....Don't ever act smart
in front of your Boss and never try for getting over-credit... Don't
feel happy when ur projectmate is under pressure...
"And most importantly, Never Work Hard, Work Cleverly....."
