...Humor Break?

Subject:  Help Wanted

The insurance firm  put a sign in the window saying "HELP WANTED.  You must be a good typist  and have good computer skills.  Successful applicant must be bilingual. We  are an Equal Opportunity Employer."

A short time later a lovely golden retriever dog trotted up  to the window, saw the sign and went inside.  He looked at the receptionist and  wagged his tail, then walked over to the sign, looked at it, whined and pawed  the air.

The receptionist called the office manager.  He was  surprised to say the least to see a canine applicant. However, the dog looked  determined so he led him into the office.  Inside, the dog jumped up on a chair  and stared at the manager expectantly.

The manager said, "I can't hire  you.  The sign says you must be able to type."

The dog jumped down, went to the typewriter and proceeded to quickly type a perfect business letter.   He took out the page with his mouth and trotted over to the manager, gave it to him, then jumped back up on the chair wagging his tail.

The  manager was stunned, but told the dog, "That was fantastic, but I'm sorry.   The  sign clearly says that whomever I hire must have computer skills."

The dog jumped down again, went to the computer and  proceeded to demonstrate his expertise with various programs.   He produced a sample Excel spreadsheet, a sample Power Point presentation, retouched a picture with Photo shop, and then printed all of them out for the  manager.

The manager was dumbfounded.  He said to the dog, "Listen, I realize that you are a very intelligent  applicant and have fantastic talent, but you're a dog!  There's no WAY I can hire you!"

The dog jumped  down and went to the sign in the window and pointed his paw at the words, "Equal  Opportunity Employer."

The exasperated manager said, "Yes, I know what the sign says.  But the sign also says you have to be bilingual."



...The dog looked him straight in the eye... and  enthusiastically said... "Meow!!!"
