A Dog’s Diary: Charlie’s Top 5 Job Choices
Dear Diary,
My humans keep watching the news reports about stocks and bonds and unemployment and the economy – all things that make me want to yawn, turn around three times, and nap until the mailman gets here at noon and I have to defend my castle.
Even so, it kind of intrigues me, too, and I find myself wondering what kind of job I would have if I was allowed to be employed. I think these are my top five choices:
Taste tester at the local meat plant
Meat plants are a thing, right?
Park ranger
You can bet I’d keep all those squirrels in order!
IT tech
I’m assuming that IT stands for “Impeccable T-Bone.”
Dog park producer
My dog park is missing a cheese fountain. I’d work to fix that for dog parks everywhere.
Re-tail
Get it?
Writer
I already know the title of my first classic! The Sound and the Furry.
Talk to you later,
Charlie
