Management ??????
Two camels (a mother and a baby) were lazing around, when suddenly baby camel said. Baby: "mother, mother, can I ask you some question?"
Mother: "sure! Why son, is there something bothering you?"
Baby: "why do camels have humps?"
Mother: "well son, we are desert animals, we need the humps to store water and we are known to survive without water."
Baby: "okay, then why our legs are long and our feet rounded."
"Son, obviously they are meant for walking in the desert. You know with
these legs I can move around the desert better than anyone”, said the
mother proudly.
Baby: "okay, said baby camel.”Then why are our eye lashes long? Sometimes it is bothering my sight." said baby camel.
Mother: "my son, those long thick eye lashes are your protective cover.
They help to protect your eyes from the desert sand and wind." Said mother camel with eyes brimming with pride.
Baby: "I see. So the hump is to store water when we are in the desert, the
legs are for walking through the desert and these eye lashes protect my
eyes from the desert. Then what the hell are we doing here in a zoo???
MORAL OF THE STORY IS SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE, ABILITIES AND EXPERIENCE IS ONLY USEFUL IF THE MANAGEMENT GIVES OPPORTUNITY!!

Dear Peer saab
It is really a good story . I think most of the Indians are suffering from the same problem. As per my openion a Indian can do the miracle if opportunity is available to show the potential
A statement of old foreigner philosopher for the Indian are as below
"Their belly is Empty but mind is Full , Our Belly is full but mind is empty"
Really It is Good sharing by u

That's a great story and a great insight too..
But i'd like to add that..
we should also let ourselves find the opportunities rather than wait for the right opportunity. If the management does not provide the opportunity, how many of us take proactive initiatives to find one.. let alone create one?
We indians usually accept happiness in complacency and the existing state of affairs.. while, if we let ourselves explore we can find loads of opportunities around us. Unfortunatley most of us suffer from the 'Chalta Hai' and 'Aisa hi hota hai' syndromes.
People must try to get out of the zoo if they think they dont belong there. Afterall we arent all that helpless !!!
