Dear All,
This may be a repeat post but I like it most so am sharing it with you :
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, 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.
Then the dog 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
waiting for the bus stop to come. 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
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
onlooker's expectations but shall always fall short of the boss' expectations.
It's dog's life after all......... *
