Well for those of you who have read the Panchatantra, this should be fun :).
MORAL STORY NO.1
It’s a fine sunny day in the forest, and a lion is
sitting outside his
cave,lying lazily in the sun. Along comes a fox, out
on a walk.
Fox: “Do you know my watch is broken?”
Lion: “Oh, I can easily fix the watch for you.”
Fox: “Hmm. But it’s a very complicated mechanism, and
your great claws
will only destroy it even more.”Lion: “Oh no, give it to me, and it will be fixed.”
Fox: “That’s ridiculous! Any fool knows that lazy
lions with great claws
cannot fix complicated watches.”
Lion: “Sure, they do! Give it to me and it will be
fixed.”
The lion disappears into his cave, and after a while
he comes back with
the watch working perfectly. The fox is very much
impressed, and the
lion continues to lie lazily in the sun, looking very
pleased with
himself.
Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the lazy
lion in the sun.
Wolf: “Can I come and watch TV tonight with you,
because mine is
broken.”
Lion: “Oh, I can easily fix your TV for you.”
Wolf: “You don’t expect me to believe such rubbish, do
you? There is no
way that a lazy lion with big claws can fix a
complicated TV.”
Lion: “No problem. Do you want to try it?” The lion
goes into his cave,
and after a while comes back with a perfectly fixed
TV. The wolf goes
away happily and amazed.
Scene inside the lion’s cave:
In one corner there are half a dozen small and
intelligent looking
rabbits busily doing very complicated works with very
sophisticated
instruments.
In the other corner lies a huge lion looking very
pleased with himself.
Moral:
1. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY A SUPERVISOR IS FAMOUS,
LOOK AT THE WORK OF
HIS SUBORDINATES.
2. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY SOME ONE UNDESERVED IS
PROMOTED, LOOK AT THE
WORK OF HIS SUBORDINATES.

MORAL STORY 2
It’s a fine sunny day in the forest, and a rabbit is
sitting outside his
burrow, working on his computer. Along comes a fox,
out for a walk.
Fox: “What are you working on?”
Rabbit: “My thesis.”
Fox: “Hmm… What is it about?”
Rabbit: “Oh, I’m writing about how rabbits eat foxes.”
Fox: “That’s ridiculous! Any fool knows that rabbits
don’t eat foxes!”
Rabbit: “Come with me and I’ll show you!” They both
disappear into the
rabbit’s burrow. After few minutes, gnawing on a fox
bone, the rabbit
returns to his computer and resumes typing.
Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the
hardworking rabbit.
Wolf: “What’s that you are working on?”
Rabbit: “I’m doing a thesis on how rabbits eat
wolves.”
Wolf: “you don’t expect to get such rubbish published,
do you?”
Rabbit: “No problem. Do you want to see why?” The
rabbit and the wolf go
into the burrow and again the rabbit returns by
himself, after a few
minutes, and goes back to work.
Finally a bear comes along and asks, “What are you
doing?”
Rabbit: “I’m doing a thesis on how rabbits eat bears.”
Bear: “Well that’s absurd!”
Rabbit: “Come into my home and I’ll show you” As they
enter the burrow,
the rabbit introduces the bear to a ferocious lion.
Moral:
1. IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW SILLY YOUR THESIS IS, WHAT
MATTERS IS WHO YOU
HAVE FOR A SUPERVISOR.
2. IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW BAD YOUR PERFORMANCE IS, WHAT
MATTERS IS
WHETHER YOUR BOSS STANDS BY YOU.
