A balloonist is floating along and suddenly realizes he is lost. He lowers his altitude and notices a man in the field below him. He calls out to him saying: "Excuse me, but I am lost. Could you tell me where I am?"

The man below answers, "You are 50 feet in the air hovering above a field."

The balloonist says: "You must be in Information Technology."

"I am," says the man. "How did you know?"

"Well, everything you said is technically correct, but it is of no use to anyone," says the balloonist.

"You must be in Management," says the man.

"How did you know that?", asks the balloonist.

The man answers: "You are floating around with no idea where you are or where you are going, and you expect me to help. You are in the same position you were when we met, but now its' my fault."

Since we're airborne....

Skydiver on his first solo jump, leaps out of the plane, achieves perfect position, and when he reaches for his ripcord...nothing happens. Reserve...also nothing.

The man is rocketing down, to certain death.

At about five hundred feet, he sees a woman rocketing UPward at him. He shouts in desperation, "Know anything about parachutes?"

She yells back, "NO! KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT GAS STOVES?"
