"He may not have all his eggs in one basket, but I think he has enough to fry an omelet."
From a co-worker.

(There's a lot of truth in this "joke".)
When trying to define the difference between involvement and commitment, think about a bacon and egg breakfast:
The hen was involved while the pig was committed.

Roy the farmer was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young (hens) layers, called pullets, and eight or ten roosters, whose job was to fertilize the eggs.
The farmer kept records, and any rooster that didn't perform went into the soup pot and was replaced. That took an awful lot of his time so he bought sets of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone so Roy could tell from a distance which rooster was performing. So, now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by listening to the bells.
