2Every day, a small ant arrives at work very early
and starts work immediately.
Moãi ngaøy, chuù kieán nhoû ñeàu ñi laøm raát
sôùm vaø baét tay vaøo vieäc ngay.
3He produces a lots and very happy.
Chuù kieán laøm vieäc raát gioûi, vaø luoân vui
veû.
4The Chief, a lion, was surprised to see that
the ant was working without supervision.
OÂng chuû cuûa chuù, laø con sö töû, raát ngaïc
nhieân khi thaáy chuù kieán laøm vieäc maø khoâng
caàn söï giaùm saùt.
5He thought if the ant can produce so much without
supervision, wouldnt she produce even more if
she had a supervisor!
Con sö töû suy nghó, chuù kieán ñaõ coù theå laøm
toát maø khoâng caàn giaùm saùt, vaäy neáu coù
ngöôøi giaùm saùt thì chaéc chuù kieán coøn laøm
toát hôn gaáp boäi!
6So he recruited a cockroach who had extensive
experience as supervisor and who was famous for
writing excellent reports.
Theá laø sö töû thueâ 1 con giaùn coù nhieàu kinh
nghieäm veà giaùm saùt, vaø noåi tieáng veà kyõ
naêng vieát nhöõng baùo caùo raát laø hay.
7The cockroachs first decision was to set up a
clocking in attendance system.
Sau khi ñöôïc thueâ, quyeát ñònh ñaàu tieân cuûa
con giaùn laø gaén 1 caùi ñoàng hoà treo töôøng
ñeå theo doõi vieäc ñi laøm ñuùng giôø.
8He also needed a secretary to help him write and
type his reports and
Con giaùn cuõng caàn 1 thö kyù ñeå thay noù vieát
ghi chuù hay laøm baùo caùo, vaø theá laø...
9... he recruited a spider, who managed the
archives and monitored all phone calls.
... noù thueâ 1 con nheän, chæ ñeå quaûn lyù baùo
caùo vaø nhaän caùc cuoäc goïi.
10The lion was delighted with the cockroach's
reports and asked him to produce graphs to
describe production rates and to analyse trends,
so that he could use them for presentations at
Boards meetings.
Con sö töû raát haøi loøng veà nhöõng baùo caùo
cuûa con giaùn, vaø yeâu caàn con giaùn laøm
theâm nhöõng bieåu ñoà theo doõi saûn löôïng vaø
phaân tích xu höôùng thò tröôøng, ñeå noù coù
theå trình baøy taïi cuoäc hoïp Ban quaûn trò.
11So the cockroach had to buy a new computer and a
laser printer and ...
Theá laø con giaùn mua 1 caùi maùy vi tính môùi,
cuøng vôùi 1 maùy in lazer, vaø...
12... recruited a fly to manage the IT department.
... noù thueâ 1 con ruoài ñeå laøm quaûn lyù boä
phaän IT.
13The ant, who had once been so productive and
relaxed, hated this new plethora of paperwork and
meetings which used up most of her time!
Nhaéc tôùi con kieán, luùc tröôùc laøm vieäc raát

14The lion came to the conclusion that it was high
time to nominate a person in charge of the
department where the ant worked.
OÂng chuû sö töû ñi ñeán keát luaän laø caàn
phaûi cöû moät ngöôøi laøm quaûn lyù nguyeân caû
boä phaän maø con kieán ñang laøm vieäc.
15The position was given to the cicada, whose first
decision was to buy a carpet and an ergonomic
chair for his office.
Chöùc vuï oâng chuû nhoû naøy ñöôïc giao cho 1

ve laø mua ngay 1 caùi thaûm ñeïp vaø moät caùi

16The new person in charge, the cicada, also needed
a computer and a personal assistant, who he
brought from his previous department, to help him
prepare a Work and Budget Control Strategic
Optimisation Plan
Vaø oâng chuû ve saàu naøy cuõng caàn theâm 1

17The Department where the ant works is now a sad
place, where nobody laughs anymore and everybody
has become upset...
Vaên phoøng con kieán laøm vieäc trôû thaønh moät
nôi buoàn baõ, chaúng coøn ai cöôøi ñuøa vaø moïi

18It was at that time that the cicada convinced the
boss , the lion, of the absolute necessity to
start a climatic study of the environment .
Theá laø con ve saàu thuyeát phuïc oâng chuû

laøm moät cuoäc nghieân cöùu kyõ löôõng veà moâi
tröôøng laøm vieäc taïi ñaây.
19Having reviewed the charges for running the
ants department , the lion found out that the
production was much less than before.
Sau khi xem laïi caùc baùo caùo taøi chính trong
vaên phoøng nôi con kieán laøm, con sö töû phaùt
hieän ra naêng suaát ñaõ thaáp hôn tröôùc ñaây
raát nhieàu.
20So he recruited the owl , a prestigious and
renowned consultant to carry out an audit and
suggest solutions.
Theá laø sö töû thueâ 1 con cuù, ñoù laø 1 coá
vaán noåi tieáng vaø coù uy tín, ñeå tieán haønh
ñieàu tra vaø ñöa ra caùc giaûi phaùp caàn thieát
21The owl spent three months in the department and
came up with an enormous report , in several
volumes, that concluded The department is
overstaffed ...
Con cuù boû ra 3 thaùng ñeå nghieân cöùu veà vaên

22Guess who the lion fires first?
Ñoaùn xem oâng chuû sö töû sa thaûi ai ñaàu tieân?
23The ant , of course, because he showed lack of
motivation and had a negative attitude".
Dó nhieân seõ laø con kieán, vì noù thieáu ñoäng
