It`s a fine sunny day in the forest, and a rabbit is sitting outside his burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter. 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 typewriter and resumes typing. Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworking rabbit.
Wolf: "What`s that you are writing?"
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 typing.
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 the lion.
Moral: It doesn`t matter how silly our thesis topic is. What matters is whom we have for a supervisor.
In the context of the working world:
It doesn`t matter how bad our performance is; what matters is whether our boss likes us.
Lesson for Management Student:
To survive in the corporate world successfully, our boss is going to be the key player
