A business was looking for office help. They put a sign in the window stating the following: “HELP WANTED. Must be good with a computer and must be bilingual. We are an equal opportunity employer.” A dog trotted up to the window, saw the sign and went inside. He looked at the receptionist and wagged his tail, then he walked over to the sign, looked at it and whined. Getting the idea, the receptionist got the office manager. He looked at the dog and was surprised to say the least. However the dog looked determined, so he led 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 good with a computer.” The dog went to the computer and proceeded to demonstrate his expertise with various programs. He produced a spreadsheet and database and presented them to the manager.
The manager was dumbfounded! He 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 sentence that told about being an equal opportunity employer. The manager said, “Yes, but the sign also says that you have to bilingual.” The dog looked him straight in the face and said, “Meow.”
