A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted, "Excuse me, Can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I Donโt know where I am." The woman below replied, "You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 Degrees North latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude." "You must be in Sales Support," said the balloonist. "I am," replied the woman, "How did you know?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically Correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information. The fact Is, I'm still lost and you've wasted my time and fuel." The woman below responded, "You must be in Sales." "I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?" "Well," said the woman, "you don't know where you are or where you are going. You relied on hot air to get where you are, you made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your Problem. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before you came to me, but now, somehow, it's my fault."
