Summary

This quote humorously suggests that consultants often come into a situation, gather information or resources from others (symbolized by borrowing a watch), provide an analysis or solution (telling the time), and then leave with the knowledge or resources they acquired (walking off with the watch). It brings attention to the idea that consultants sometimes extract value from a situation without necessarily leaving behind long-lasting or tangible results. It highlights the potential transient nature of their contributions.
