Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach

You must have heard of the saying : 
 
"Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach"
 
Well, here is some more I read somewhere and a bit I have improvised too:
 
Those who can, do. 
 
Those who can't do, teach.

Those who can't teach, administrate.

Those who can't administrate, take dictation.

Those who can't take dictation, answer the phone.

Those who can't answer the phone, wait on tables.

Those who can't wait on tables, carry dirty dishes to the kitchen.

Those who can't carry dirty dishes to the kitchen, wash dirty dishes.

Those who can't wash dirty dishes, sweep the floor.

Those who can't sweep the floor, haul out the garbage.

Those who can't haul out the garbage, write novels.

Those who can't write novels, write short stories.

Those who can't write short stories, write articles.

Those who can't write articles, edit.

Those who can't edit, write music columns.

Those who can't write music columns, write blogs.

Those who can't write blogs, write letters to the editor.

Those who can't write letters to the editor, write screenplays.
 
Those who can't write screenplays, write for TV.

Those who can't write for TV, read scripts for studios.

Those who can't read scripts for studios, act.

Those who can't act, take acting classes.

Those who can't take acting classes, sing.

Those who can't sing, preach.
 
Those who can't preach, teach....
 
So you're back to Square One...

If you can't do anything, start teaching...
