Management-Joke

A man in a hot air ballon realised he was lost.
He decreased altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a little more and shouted " Excuse me can you help me, I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago and I don't know where I am"
The woman replied" You are in a hot air balloon roughly 50' above the ground between21 and 22 degrees east and 139 and 140 degrees south"
"You must be an engineer" said the balloonist.
"How did you know" the woman asked.
"Well" answered the balloonist "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea of what to make of your information and the fact is i am still lost. Frankly you have not been much help at all"
"You must be in management" replies the woman.
"How did you know" replies the balloonist.
"Well" said the woman " you don't know where you are or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect people below you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position as you were in before you met me, but now, somehow, it's all my fault".
