Hi All,
Help Wanted
-----------
A local business was looking for office help. They put a sign in the
window, stating the following: "HELP WANTED: Must be able to type,
must be good with a computer and must be bilingual. We are an Equal
Opportunity Employer."
A short time afterwards, a 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 and whined. Getting the
idea, the receptionist got the office manager. The office manager
looked at the dog and was surprised, to say the least. However, the
dog looked determined, so he lead him into the office. Inside, the dog
jumped up on the chair and stared at the manager.
The manager said "I can't hire you. The sign says you have to be able
to type.
The dog jumped down, went to the typewriter and proceeded to type out
a perfect letter. He took out the page and trotted over to the manager
and gave it to him, then jumped back on the chair.
The manager was stunned, but then told the dog "the sign says you have
to be good with a computer."
The dog jumped down again and went to the computer. The dog proceeded
to enter and execute a perfect program, that worked flawlessly the
first time. By this time the manager was totally dumb-founded!
He looked at the dog and said "I realize that you are a very
intelligent dog and have some interesting abilities. However, I
*still* can't give you the job."
The dog jumped down and went to a copy of the sign and put his paw on
the sentences that told about being an Equal Opportunity Employer.
The manager said "yes, but the sign *also* says that you have to be
bilingual."
The dog looked at the manager calmly and said, "Meow!"
