Several armed robbers entered a bank.
One of them shouted: "Nobody move! The money belongs to the bank...Your lives belong to you.”
Immediately everybody in the bank laid on the floor quietly and without panic.

This is an example of how the correct wording of a sentence can make everyone change their view of the world.

One woman somehow laid on the floor in a rather provocative manner...
One of the robbers approached her saying, "Madam, this is a robbery not a rape...Please behave accordingly."

This is an example of how to behave professionally, and focus on the goal.

While running from the bank the youngest robber (who had a college degree) said to the oldest robber (who had barely finished elementary school): "Hey, let's see how much money we got?"
The older man replied: "Don’t be stupid...It's a lot of money, let's wait for the news on TV to find out how much money was taken."

This is an example of how life experience is more important than a degree.

Soon after the robbery, the manager of the bank said to his accountant:
"Let's call the cops and tell them how much has been stolen.".
"No...Wait", said the Accountant, "before we do that, let's first add all that money we took for ourselves over the past few months and also add in any other expenses and then let's just say that it was stolen as part of today’s robbery."

This is an example of taking advantage of an opportunity.

The following day it was reported in the news that the bank was robbed of $3 million.
The robbers counted the money, but they found only $1 million, so they started to grumble.
"We risked our lives for $1 million, while the bank's management robbed two million dollars without blinking?
Maybe it's better to learn how to work the system, instead of being just stupid robbers..."

This is an example of how knowledge can be more useful than power.


Now there's a moral here, (isn't there always?): Give a person a gun, and he can rob a bank. Give a person a bank, and he can rob everyone.
