To survive in the working place and succeed in your career, you need to know some career tips. Look at the career story and the career tips.
1st career story, a bird was sitting on the top of a tree and doing nothing all day long. A small rabbit saw the bird and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?" The bird answered: "Sure, why not." Therefore, the rabbit sat under the tree below the bird and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared. The fox jumped on the rabbit and ate it. Finally, the rabbit died.
Career tips of the story, to be sitting and doing nothing you must be sitting very high. If you are a CEO, then you may sit in the office and doing nothing all day long. If you are just a junior executive or engineer, then you better don’t do that except your father, mother, husband or wife is the CEO.
2nd career story, a turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of the tree, but I haven’t got the energy." The turkey sighed. The bull replied "Well, why don’t you eat on some of my droppings? They are packed with nutrients." The turkey gave a try and ate at a lump of dung. The turkey found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree. The next day, after eating more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fortnight, he was proudly reached at the top of the tree. Unfortunately, he was spotted by a farmer soon. The farmer shot the turkey out of the tree. The turkey became the delicious meal.
Career tips of the story, bullshit might get you to the top but it would not keep you there for long. If you are doing a lot of bullshit things just to get to the top, then be careful.
3rd career story, a little bird was flying south away from the winter. It was so cold. The bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there in warm and happy. Soon, he began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung. The cat promptly dug him out and ate him!
