"THE LIGHTER SIDE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT"

HOT AIR BALLOON

((POSTING ON A LIGHTER NOTE))

A project manager was lost one day flying a hot air balloon in a race. He saw a young man on the ground and landed the balloon nearby. The PM inquired about his lost whereabouts.

The man told him “You are in a field next to your hot air balloon, my GPS tells me you are N32º 5.4489 and W12º3.147 and it looked as though you were headed due west.”

The PM asked the man “Are you an engineer?” The man replied, "That is correct - how did you guess that". The project manager told him, “I have no doubt all the positioning data you have given me is correct .... but to be honest it's useless to me as I am still lost".

The man chuckled and said “Well .... YOU must be a PROJECT MANAGER" Astonished the PM asked "How did you know?" The man said, "Neither do you have a clue about where you are nor where you are going. You have a race to run but you have no idea how to win it. Forget winning, you don’t even have a clue about which way to go. You obviously needed my help and asked for it, and after me having told you where you were; the situation you're in is somehow my fault now."
