The Goat And The Horse

There was a farmer who had a horse
and a goat
One day, the horse became ill and he
called the veterinarian, who said:
- Well, your horse has a virus. He must
take this medicine for three days. I'll
come back on the 3rd day and if he's
not better, we're going to have to put
him down.
Nearby, the goat listened closely to their
conversation.
The next day, they gave him the
medicine and left.
The goat approached the horse and
said: - Be strong, my friend.
Get up or else they're going to put you
to sleep!
On the second day, they gave him the
medicine and left.
The goat came back and said :- Come on
buddy, get up or else you're going to
die! Come on, I'll help you get up. Let's
go! One, two, three
On the third day, they came to give him
the medicine
and the vet said: - Unfortunately, we're
going to have to put him down
tomorrow.
Otherwise, the virus might spread and
infect the other horses.
After they left, the goat approached the
horse and said:
- Listen pal, it's now or never! Get up,
come on! Have courage!
Come on! Get up! Get up! That's it,
slowly! Great!
Come on, one, two, three... Good, good.
Now faster, come on Fantastic! Run, run
more!
Yes! Yay! Yes! You did it, you're a
champion!!!
All of a sudden, the owner came back,
saw the horse running in the field and
began shouting:
- It's a miracle! My horse is cured.
We must have a grand party. Let's kill
the goat!!!!
The Lesson : this often happens in the
workplace.
Nobody truly knows which employee
actually deserves the merit of success,
or who's actually contributing the
necessary support
to make things happen.
Remember : LEARNING TO LIVE
WITHOUT RECOGNITION
IS A SKILL !!
If anyone ever tells you that your work
is unprofessional, remember : Amateurs
built the Ark [which saved all the
species]
and professionals built the Titanic !!
