A pilot was utterly lost and decided to fly down through the clouds and try to figure out where he was.
When he finally got close to earth he saw miles and miles of fields, all looking exactly the same, except for one that had a man standing in the middle of it staring into the air.
The pilot decided to fly close to the man and ask him for directions. When the pilot came close enough to the man he shouted “Where am I?”
The man in the field shouted back: “You are in a plane”
The pilot took another circle and shouted back: “You must be an IT consultant”
Man in the field: “Why… Yes I am, how did you know”
Pilot: “While your answer is technically correct it doesn’t tell me anything I don’t already know”
Man in field: “You must be a business man”
Pilot: “Why… Yes I am, how did you know”
Man in field: “Because you don’t know where you are, you don’t know where you should go….. and all of a sudden it is all my fault!”
