Mary is in her 50s and she didn't have the chance to go to college because she didn't

Economics course. She was at how enjoyable it was and

The Ant
Every single day a little ant would arrive early at the office and 
 to work.
The ant was productive and happy. The hornet manager found it strange that the ant 
worked without supervision. If the ant was productive without supervision, it would 
be even more productive if it were . And so, 
the manager promoted the cockroach, who delivered excellent reports, and was an 
experienced supervisor. 
The roach's first concern was to get the ant to 
and out. After a short while, the roach needed help from a secretary and 
 a spider to help organize the files and answer 
phone calls. The hornet was amazed with the roach's reports and asked for 
, analysis 
and meeting . The roach then hired a fly and bought a 
computer and printer. 
Soon the ant, who used to be happy and productive, started to complain about all 
the noise, and meetings! After that, the hornet 
decided it was time to create a new management position for the ant's department. 
The job was to a cicada, who had new carpet and 
 brought into his office. The new cicada manager soon 
needed an assistant, who had previously been his assistant in his last job, to help him come 
up with a strategic plan for improvement and control for 
the department where the ant worked. The ant was no 
happy and got more and more upset every day. So the cicada convinced the hornet 
that a study of office was necessary. However, 
when the hornet went over the figures he realized the ant's department was not as 
productive as it used to be. The hornet hired the owl, a well-known consultant, to 
 the situation. 
The owl worked in the office for three months and prepared an extensive 
 which stated: There are too many people in this company!
Guess who the hornet ?
The ant, of course! Because it was demotivated and upset.
