A local business was looking for office help. They put a sign in
the window saying:
HELP WANTED
Must be a good typist and be good with a computer.
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 t! he typewriter and proceeded to quickly
type a perfect business
letter. He took out the page and trotted over to the manager,
gave it to him, then jumped
back up on the chair.
The manager was stunned, but told the dog, "That was
fantastic, but I'm sorry. The sign
clearly says that whoever I hire has to be good with a computer."
The dog jumped down again, went to the computer and proceeded
to demonstrate his
expertise with various programs, produced a sample spreadsheet
and database, then
presented them to the manager.
The manager was dumbfounded! He said to the dog, "Hey, I
realize that you are a very
intelligent applicant and have fantastic talent, but you're a
dog -- no way could I 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 damned
sign says. But the sign ! also
says you have to be bilingual."
The dog looked him stra ight in the eye and said,
"Meow."
