its story time.
A butcher watching over his shop is really surprised when he sees a dog
coming inside the shop. He shoos
him away. But later, the dog is back again. So, he goes over to the dog and
notices it has a note in its
mouth.
He takes the note and it reads "Can I have 12 sausages and a leg of lamb,
please? The dog has money in its mouth, as well."
The butcher looks inside and, lo and behold, there is a ten dollar note
there. So he takes the money and
puts the sausages and lamb in a bag, placing it in the dog's mouth. The
butcher is so impressed, and since it's about closing time, he decides to
shut the shop and follow the dog.
So off he goes. The dog is walking down the street, when it comes to a
level crossing; the dog puts down
the bag, jumps up and presses the button. Then it waits patiently, bag in
mouth, for the lights to turn.
They do, and it walks across the road, with the butcher following him all
the way.
The dog then comes to a bus stop, and starts looking at the timetable. The
butcher is in awe as the dog
stops a bus by pulling its left leg up and gets in it. The butcher follows
the dog into the bus. The dog then shows a ticket which is tied to its belt
to the bus conductor. The butcher is nearly fainting at this sight, so are
the other passengers in the bus. The dog then sits near the driver's seat
looking outside. As soon as the stop is in sight, the dog stands and wags
its tail to inform the conductor. Then, without waiting for the bus to stop
completely, it jumps out of the bus and runs to a house very close to the
stop.
It opens the big Iron Gate and rushes inside towards the door. As it
approaches the wooden door, the dog
suddenly changes its mind and heads towards the garden. It goes to the
window, and beats its head
against it several times, walks back, jumps off, and waits at the door. The
butcher watches as a big guy
opens the door, and starts abusing the dog, kicking him and punching him,
and swearing at him. The butcher surprised with this, runs up, and stops
the guy.
"What in heaven's name are you doing? The dog is a genius. He could be on
TV, for the life of me! "To
which the guy responds: "You call this clever? This is the second time this
week that this stupid dog's
forgotten his key."
Moral of the story.....
You may continue to exceed onlookers expectations but
shall always fall short of the boss' expectations.
It's a dog's life after all.....
