Perspective Is Everything

One company held an inter-office softball game held every year between the marketing and support staff.

One year, the support staff whipped the marketing department soundly.

The marketing department demonstrated how they earn their keep, by posting this memo on the bulletin board after the game:

The marketing department is pleased to announce that we came in second place in the recent softball season, after losing but one game all year. The support department, however, had a rather dismal season, winning only one game."
