correct,you can have your sheep.The young man takes one of the animals and puts it in the back of his vehicle.The shepherd looks at him and asks:Now,if I guess your profession,will you pay me back in kind?The young man answers:Sure.The shepherd says,You are a consultant.Exactly!How did you know?asks the young man.Very simple,answers the shepherd.First,you came here without being called.Second,you
