An interesting short story

There was a farmer who collected horses. He only needed one more breed to complete his collection. One day, he found out that his neighbor had the particular horse breed he needed. So, he constantly bothered his neighbor until he sold.

A month later, the horse became ill and he called the veterinarian, who said, “ Well, your horse has a virus. He must take this medicine for three days. I'll come back on the 3rd day and if he's not better, we're going to have to put him to sleep. Nearby, the pig listened closely to their conversation.

The next day, they gave him the medicine and left. The pig approached the horse and said, “Be brave, my friend. Get up or else they're going to kill you”.

On the second day, they gave him the medicine and left. The horse was still unable to get up. The pig came back and said, “Come on buddy, get up or else you're going to die! Come on, I'll help you get up. Let's go! One, two, three...”.

On the third day, they came to give him the medicine and the veterinarian said, “Unfortunately, we may have to put him to sleep tomorrow. Otherwise, the virus might spread and infect the other horses”.

After they left, the pig strongly nudged the horse and said, “Listen pal, it's now or never! Get up, come on! Have courage! Come on! Get up! Get up! That's it, slowly! Great! Come on, one, two, three..., good. Now faster, come on.... Fantastic! Run, run more! Yes! Yes! You did it, you're a champion!!!”

The owner came back, saw the horse running in the field and began shouting in joy, “It's a miracle! My horse is cured. This deserves a party. Let's kill the pig!”

How often this happens in work place depends on many things.
