Bones in an Orgainization

There are four main bones in every organization.

1. The wish-bones: Wishing somebody would do something about the problem.

2. The jaw-bones: Doing all the talking but very little else.

3. The knuckle-bones: Those who knock everything.

4. The back-bones: Those who carry the brunt of the load and do most of the work.
