Supragal Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Can't decide if it's funny or not A man in a hot air balloon realised he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted, excuse me, can you help me? I promised I would meet a friend an hour ago but I don't know where I am. The woman replied, You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximatel 30 ft above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and 55 to 56 degrees west longitude. You must be in 'Information technology', shouted the balloonist Yes I am replied the woman.How did you know? Well said the balloonist, everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost. Quite frankly, you have not been much use to me at all. To be honest you have delayed my trip and wasted my time. The woman from below shouted, You must be in management! I am, replied the balloonist, proudly, but how did you know? Well, said the woman, you don't know where you are, or even where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you have 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 and you have found someone to blame.
