The Photographer and the Chef

This is an analogy I like to tell people in a "situation" that I sometimes come across...

Once, there was a class reunion at one of a classmate's house who was a well-known chef. He invited the class to his place so that he could show off his trophies and his cooking. And he succeeded. Everyone was impressed.

After dinner, the class gathered in the living room to chat and found out that one of them had became a photographer. So they asked him what kind of photographs he had taken. He pointed out a few fashion magazines on the couch and told them his works were in it. True enough, his name appeared as the magnum photograher and chief art director as they flipped through pages and pages of beautiful and artistic photos in the magazines. There were plenty of 'ooh's and 'aah's.

The chef began to feel jealous as he was losing the limelight. So he asked sarcastically,

"Wow... these are really fantastic pictures! I bet you must have a very good camera..."

The photographer knew where he was coming from and he coolly replied, "Thanks! Same to you... dinner was fabulous and the cuisines were simply delicious!"

"I bet you must have a very good wok."
