Corporate story

A Corporate Story:

      Every day, a small Ant arrives  at work very early and starts work immediately.
   
   She produces  a lot and she was happy.

     The Chief,  a Tiger, was surprised  to see that the Ant was working without supervision.
 
      He thought if the  Ant can produce so  much without supervision, wouldn’t she produce even more if she had a supervisor!

      So he recruited a  Bee who had extensive experience as  supervisor and who was  famous for  writing  excellent reports.

     The  Bee’s first decision was to set up a  clocking in attendance system.
  
      He also needed a secretary to help him write and type his reports and he  recruited a Rabbit , who managed the archives and monitored  all phone calls.

      The Tiger was delighted with the  Bee's reports and asked him to produce graphs  to describe production rates and to analyse   trends, so that he could use them for  presentations at Board‘s meetings.

     So the Bee had to buy a  new computer and a  Laser printer and recruited a  Cat to manage the  IT department.

      The Ant, who had once been so productive and relaxed, hated this new plethora of paperwork  and meetings which used up most of her time…!

   The Tiger came to the conclusion that it was high time to nominate a person in charge of the department where the  Ant worked.

     The position was given to the  Monkey, whose first decision was to buy an Air Conditioner and an ergonomic  chair for his office.
  
     The new person in charge,  the Monkey, also needed a  computer and a personal assistant , who he brought from his previous department, to help him prepare a  Work and  'Budget Control Strategic Optimisation Plan' …

     The Department where the Ant works is now a sad place, where nobody laughs anymore  and everybody has become upset...

     It was at that time that the Bee convinced the boss,  the Tiger; of the absolute necessity  to start a climatic study of the environment .

      Having reviewed  the  charges  for running the  Ant’s department , the  Tiger  found out that  the Production   was much less than  before.

     So he recruited the  Owl, a prestigious and renowned consultant to carry out an  audit and  suggest solutions.

      The Owl spent three months  in the department and came up with an enormous report, in several volumes, that concluded...
                   .
                   .
                   .
                   .
       “ The Department is overstaffed ...”
                   .
                   .
                   .
                   .

   Guess who the Tiger fires first?
                   .
                   .
                   .
                   .
                   .

          Of course, the Ant.........,

         "....because she showed lack of motivation and had a negative attitude. "
