Jim, a garbage collector visited every house in the society,
collected the waste and disposed the garbage safely. He did this religiously
over years. Each house in the society paid him very nominal.
Jim had to stay away from work for 40 days and asked his
friend Jack to continue the activity. Jack did not see a value add for himself
doing this but could not turn down his friend.
While Jim was away, Jack did
nothing. The society soon started to stink rot and people started having
allergies. 30 days past, Jack went around the society asking people not to
panic but to cooperate. Jack got a truck to clear the garbage and dumped it 2
miles away from the society. Jack was appreciated for the initiative and got
paid. Jack has also planted the seed for his next reap 2 miles away.
Jim tamed the society while Jack aimed Fame. We often do not
appreciate the true efforts put into taming the situations for us but clap for
something in fame. Are we rational?
