Once upon a time, in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned
bunny and an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were
blind from birth.

One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest, and the snake was
slithering through the forest, when the bunny tripped over the snake
and fell down. This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit.

“Oh, my,” said the bunny, “I’m terribly sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt
you. I’ve been blind since birth, so, I can’t see where I’m going. In
fact, since I’m also an orphan, I don’t even know what I am.”

“It’s quite ok,” replied the snake. “Actually, my story is as yours.
I too have been blind since birth, and also never knew my mother.
Tell you what, maybe I could slither all over you, and work out what
you are so at least you’ll have that going for you.”

“Oh, that would be wonderful” replied the bunny. So the snake
slithered all over the bunny, and said, “Well, you’re covered with
soft fur, you have really long ears, your nose twitches, and you have
a soft cottony tail. I’d say that you must be a bunny rabbit.”
“Oh, thank you, thank you,” cried the bunny, in obvious excitement.

The bunny suggested to the snake, “Maybe I could feel you all over
with my paw, and help you the same way that you’ve helped me.” So the
bunny felt the snake all over, and remarked, “Well, you’re smooth and
slippery, and you have a forked tongue, no backbone and no balls. I’d
say you must be either a Team Leader, Supervisor or possibly someone
in Senior Management.”
