Sheep Story

Once upon a time there was a shepherd looking after
his sheep on the side of a deserted road. Suddenly a brand new Porsche
screeches to a halt.The driver, a man dressed in an Armani suit, Cerutti shoes, Ray-Ban sunglasses, TAG-Heuer wrist-watch, and a Pierre Cardin tie gets out and asks the shepherd,

"If I can tell you how many sheep you have, will you
give me one of them?" The shepherd looks at the young man, then looks at the large flock of grazing sheep and replies, "Okay."

The young man parks the car, connects his laptop to
the mobile-fax, enters a NASA Website, scans the ground using his GPS,
opens a database and 60 Excel tables filled with algorithms and pivot
tables. He then prints out a 150-page report on his high-tech
mini-printer, turns to the shepherd and says, "You have exactly 1,586 sheep."

The shepherd cheers, "That's correct, you can have
your sheep."

The young man takes an animal and puts it in the back
of his Porsche. The shepherd looks at him and asks, "If I guess your
profession, will you return my animal to me?" The young man answers, "Yes, why not?"
The shepherd says, "You are an auditor." "How did you
know?" asks the young man.

"Very simple," answers the shepherd. "

Firstly, you came here without being wanted.
Secondly, you charged me a fee to tell me something I
already knew.
Thirdly, you don't understand anything about my
business..."

".....Now can I have my dog back?"
