Management Secrets Revealed


Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.



When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, "I'll give you $800 to drop that towel." After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob.


After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.

The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, "Who was that?"


"It was Bob the next door neighbor," she replies.

"Great!" the husband says, "did he say anything about $800 he owes me?"


Moral of the story : If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure

Lesson 2:



A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg. The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" The priest removed his hand.

But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?"


The priest apologized "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak." Arriving at the convent, the nun went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, "Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory."

Moral of the story: If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity

Lesson 3:


A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, "I'll give each of you just one wish."

"Me first! Me first!" says the admin clerk. "I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world."


Puff! She's gone.

"Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "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."


Puff! 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
Lesson 4


An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing?"


The eagle answered: "Sure, why not."

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up

Lesson 5

A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."


"Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients."


The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.


He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.


Moral of the story: BullShit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there


Lesson 6

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon 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, and promptly dug him out and ate him.


Moral of the story:

(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend

(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

This ends the management course.

Getting Real

A worried woman went to her gynecologist and said:

'Doctor, I have a serious pr...oblem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even 1 year old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together.

So the doctor said: 'Ok and what do you want me to do?'

She said: 'I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your help with this.'

The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady: 'I think I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too.'

She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.

Then he continued: 'You see, in order for you not to have to take care 2 babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms. This way, you could rest some before the other one is born. If we're going to kill one of them, it doesn't matter which one it is. There would be no risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms.

The lady was horrified and said: 'No doctor! How terrible! It's a crime to kill a child!

'I agree', the doctor replied. 'But you seemed to be OK with it, so I thought maybe that was the best solution.'

The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point.

He convinced the mom that there is no difference in killing a child that's already been born and one that's still in the womb.

The crime is the same!

If you agree, please SHARE. Together we can help save precious lives!

"Love says I sacrifice myself for the good of the other person. Abortion says I sacrifice the other person for the good of myself..."

Jesus sacrificed Himself for the good of sinners! That's perfect love!

The only person available to protect you 24 hours a day is you.

VALUE HAS A VALUE ONLY IF ITS VALUE IS VALUED



Low in calories and packed with nutrients,
They should be part of a balanced diet

As the latest superfood hits the headlines
(when was the last time you ate broccoli sprouts?),
it's easy to forget the humble egg.
Packed with nutrients, relatively low in calories and easy to obtain,
Here are some reasons why eggs should be part of a healthy, balanced diet.

Protein

Eggs are a rich source of high quality protein. A medium sized egg has more than 6g of protein,

And contains all eight of the essential amino acids which can only be obtained from your diet.

Virtually free of carbohydrates, the high protein content of eggs may also help with satiety, I.e.

They help you feel full for longer than other foods.

At around 80 calories per medium sized egg, they are also low in calories.

Fats

Eggs are often thought of being high in fat. But a medium sized egg contains around 6g of fat,

And only 1.7g of this is saturated fat, the type associated with high cholesterol levels,

Heart disease and stroke. Most of the fats in eggs are the healthier monosaturated or polysaturated kinds.

Cholesterol


When it comes to cholesterol, eggs get something of a bad press.

High blood cholesterol levels are a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke,

And egg yolks are rich in cholesterol.

However, it's now known that saturated fats play a major role in blood cholesterol levels,

Whereas cholesterol-containing foods such as eggs and prawns have little overall effect.

If you want to lower your cholesterol levels, especially bad LDL-cholesterol,

Cut back on foods containing saturated fats such as fatty meats, sausages, pastries, cakes,

Butter and lard.

Vitamin D

Many of us are deficient in this vital vitamin.

Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, important for healthy bones and teeth.

Our bodies produce vitamin D when exposed to sunlight,

But eggs are one of the few foods which are also rich in this vitamin.

Adults deficient in vitamin D are at greater risk of osteoporosis.

Other studies have linked vitamin D deficiency to serious health problems

Including cancer, heart disease and multiple sclerosis.

B vitamins

Eggs are a great source of vitamin B12, needed for making red blood cells,

Maintaining the nervous system and for general growth.

Too little vitamin B12 can lead to anaemia.

Eggs are also a good source of vitamin B2 (riboflavin), which helps the body

Absorb iron and is important for healthy skin, nails and hair.

Choline


Eggs are a brain food, as they are one of the richest sources of choline,

Needed for healthy brain development and function.

The yolk from a medium sized egg contains around 300mg of choline.

Most of the choline we need comes from our diet.

It is used by the body to form the neurotransmitter acetylcholine,

Involved in memory function.

Low levels of choline can lead to a deficiency in folic acid,

Also important for a healthy brain.

Choline plays an important role in the brain development of the unbo

RN child and also helps prevent birth defects.

Egg yolks contain lutein and zeaxanthin, carotenoids which may help lower

The risk of macular degeneration, the most common cause of sight loss in the UK.

Research also suggests that the lutein from eggs is more readily taken up by the

Body than from other types of food.
