An interesting story about mouse-trap
One day, a farmer put a mousetrap in his granary. A mouse found it and went to tell a hen.
The hen looked at the mouse and said "what does this have to do with me, it is your business. Just be careful." the hen left.
Mouse ran to tell pig. The pig said "This is the matter of yours, be careful for your own goodness". He walked away leisurely.
Then mouse ran in a hurry to tell a big cow. The cow said indifferently “have you ever seen a rat trap clips to death a cow? I wish you good luck". Then the cow left proudly.
Another day mousetrap clamped a poisonous snake
Unfortunately, the hostess was bitten by the snake when she went into the granary to take food at night and has been sent to the hospital.
The host killed the hen to the hostess for extra nutrition.
After the hostess recovering, her relatives come to visit her. The host butchered the pig and served for his guests.
In order to pay off medical money that they had owned, the host sold the big cow to a slaughter house and it was killed eventually.
Small things always make a great difference. No matter you are in society or in the company, or in teams, pay more attention to it. As a proverb said the collapse of a thousand miles of dyke begins from the ant-hole.
