A Corporate Lesson which could be taught in Leading People and Groups:
A sales representative, an administration clerk and their manager are
walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a
genie appears in a puff of smoke. The Genie says: "I usually only
grant three wishes, so I'll give each of you just one wish."
'Me first! Me first!" says the administration clerk.
"I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in
the world." Poof! She's gone.
"Me next! Me next!" says the sales representative. "I want to be in Hawaii,
relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of
pina coladas and the love of my life beside me." Poof! He's gone.
"OK, you're up," the Genie says to the manager. The manager says:"I want
those two back in the office after lunch."
Moral of the story: Always let your boss have the first say.
