A local business was looking for office help. They put a sign in the window,
which read: "HELP WANTED. Must be able to type, good with a computer and
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
fire up Windows 95, then Netscape, browsed to several Websites, sent out an
email, sent a page to the printer, then retrieved it and brought it to the
manager.
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 remarkable
abilities. However, I *still* can't give you the job." The dog jumped down
and walked over to the sign, barked once, and moved his paw over the words
"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." |
