Once upon a time there was a shepherd who kept his sheep in a lonely place. Suddenly a brand-new Cherokee Jeep appeared in a big cloud of dust and stopped right next to it. The driver of the jeep, a young man in a Brioni suit, Cerutti shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and an YSL tie, gets out and asks him:
"If I guess how many sheep you have, will I get one?" The shepherd looks at the young man, then at his peacefully grazing sheep, and says quietly, "All right."
The young man parks the Jeep, connects his notebook to his mobile phone, goes to a NASA site on the Internet, scans the area with the help of his GPS satellite navigation system, opens a database and 60 Excel spreadsheets with a plethora of formulas. Finally, he prints a 150-page report on his high-tech mini printer, turns to the shepherd and says,
"You have exactly 1586 sheep here."
The shepherd says:
"That's right. choose a sheep. "
The young man takes a sheep and loads it into the jeep. The shepherd looks at him and says, "If I guess your profession, will you give me that sheep back?"
The young man replies: "Sure, why not?"
The shepherd says, "You are a business consultant."
"That's right, how do you know that?" The young man wants to know. "Very simple," says the shepherd, "firstly, you come here even though you did not call anyone. Secondly, you want to reward a sheep for telling me something I already know, and thirdly, you have no idea what I'm doing because you chose my dog. "
great
