HELP WANTED


     A local business was looking for office help. They put a sign in the window, 
     stating: 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 manager.  The manager looked at
     the dog and was surprised, to say the least.  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 began to type out a perfect
      letter... He took out the page and trotted over to the manager and gave it to
      him, he 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. He then proceeded to
      demonstrate his ~ expertise with various computer programs.   He produced a
      sample database and spreadsheet and presented them to the manager... By this
      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
      part 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 him straight in the face calmly and said,"Meow."
