The Manager's Balloon Ride
A man takes a balloon ride at a local country fair. A fierce wind suddenly kicks up, causing the balloon to violently leave the fair and carry its occupant out into the countryside.
The man has no idea where he is, so he goes down to five meters above ground and asks a passing wanderer:
"Excuse me, sir, can you tell me where I am?"
Eyeing the man in the balloon the passer-by says:
"You are in a downed red balloon, five meters above ground."
The balloon's unhappy resident replied,
"You must be an economist!"
"How could you possible know that?" asked the passer-by.
"Because your answer is technically correct but absolutely useless, and the fact is I am still lost".
"Then you must be in management", said the passer-by.
"That's right! How did you know?"
"You have such a good view from where you are, and yet you don't know where you are and you don't know where you are going. The fact is you are in the exact same position you were in before we met, but now your problem is somehow my fault!"
