One day I happen to hear a girl say to a guy,<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are as strategic as a pig.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I thought when I heard this was &#8220;Why pig?&#8221;. What makes a pig strategic? I&#8217;ve heard &#8216;as cunning as a fox&#8217; but yeah, there is that crow and the vadaa story to prove that the fox is cunning. Is there any story to prove that a pig can be strategic? I was suprised to imagine a pig thinking of something and coming up with some sort of strategy. I can imagine a pig to be too lazy even to think, forget about coming up with a strategy. I tried googling for this clause but no useful results. Still I have no clue what makes a pig strategic.<\/p>\n<p>Is that statement sarcastic? That looks more probable, though since I was there when she told this, I don&#8217;t think she was sarcastic. She actually meant it. Though I don&#8217;t know whether it is right to call an employee a pig. That is totally different argument.<\/p>\n<p>Though one thing is for sure. I can never forget this clause. Have thought about this for more than 2 days with no final conclusion. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p>If anyone has been using this clause for any damn reason, do educate me more on this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looks like my blogs are only about animals now \ud83d\ude1b I&#8217;m &#8220;working&#8221; as a software engineer.
