English Original
An executive was presenting to the company board: "Computers have allowed us to cut costs," he explained. "We expect even more dramatic improvements as they become increasingly self-sufficient." He then unveiled a large chart depicting a man, a dog, and a computer. "Here is our organization plan of the future."
"What kind of plan is that?" demanded a board member.
"It's simple," replied the executive. "The man's job is to feed the dog. The dog's job is to bite the man if he touches the computer."

“这是什么计划？”一位董事会成员质问道。
“很简单，”高管回答。“人的工作是喂狗。狗的工作是，如果人碰了计算机，就去咬他。”
