BEWARE OF THE MANAGER

A WEALTHY MANAGER WAS DRIVING IN HIS

CAR WHEN HE SAW TWO MEN ALONG THE

ROADSIDE EATING GRASS.

DISTURBED BY THE SIGHT,

HE ORDERED HIS DRIVER TO STOP

AND HE GOT OUT TO INVESTIGATE.

HE ASKED ONE MAN,

"WHY ARE YOU EATING GRASS?" 

"WE DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY FOR FOOD,"

THE POOR MAN REPLIED.

"WE HAVE TO EAT GRASS." 

"WELL, THEN, YOU CAN COME WITH ME

TO MY HOUSE AND I'LL FEED YOU,"

THE MANAGER SAID.

"BUT SIR, I HAVE A WIFE AND

FIVE CHILDREN WITH ME.

THEY ARE OVER THERE,

UNDER THAT TREE." 

"BRING THEM ALONG,

"THE MANAGER REPLIED.

TURNING TO THE OTHER POOR MAN HE STATED,

"YOU COME WITH US ALSO." 

THE SECOND MAN,

IN A PITIFUL VOICE THEN SAID,

"BUT SIR, I ALSO HAVE A WIFE AND

SEVEN CHILDREN WITH ME!" 

"BRING THEM ALL, AS WELL,

"THE MANAGER ANSWERED.

THEY ALL ENTERED THE CAR,

WHICH WAS NO EASY TASK,

EVEN FOR A CAR AS LARGE AS IT WAS.

ONE OF THE POOR FELLOWS

TURNED TO THE WEALTHY

FELLOW AND SAID,

"SIR, YOU ARE TOO KIND.

THANK YOU FOR TAKING ALL OF US WITH YOU." 

THE MANAGER REPLIED,

"GLAD TO DO IT.

YOU'LL REALLY LOVE MY PLACE,

THE GRASS IS ALMOST 1 FOOT HIGH!" 

LESSON: NEVER TRUST MANAGERS...

THEY WILL GO TO ANY EXTREME

TO FINISH THEIR JOB.
