Working My Paws Off

Biscuit here. I know you have not heard from me in awhile, so I would like to bring you up to speed on what has been going on. I have been told I have to get a job if I want to keep my cell phone. Some how I have managed to run up a large bill, and now it’s my responsibility to pay for it. Can you believe that! I guess getting by on good looks just ain’t happening any more. I have never had to work a day in my life, so this is going to be interesting.

Hold Please…

So, after I sent my resume out, I actually got a call back. Whaaat?!! I was beyond thrilled. It was for an Administrative Assistant position and I have all the requisite qualifications.

The job was to answer phones✔️(I am cute and charming on the phone), take messages,✔️(piece of cake) and book appointments✔️(easy peasy).

The company was called Barks, Barks, and Barks. I was told it was a very prestigious law firm, and I had to behave. I was scared at first, and was shaking, but once they showed me to my work station, I started to feel better, even though I look a bit tentative in the above picture. (That was on purpose so I could bank some sympathy in case I screwed up)

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

The day was going well, and I was getting tired, so I decided to take a break. I went into the Lunch room, got my doggie bag, and some kibble and a drink of water. I made some new friends and got filled in on all the office gossip. But after everyone went back to work, I really did not know what to with myself. All my work was finished, so I decided to take a nap. (Because you were expected to work long hours you were allowed to take naps throughout the day) but apparently, you weren’t allowed to sleep under your desk. Yup, you guessed it! My nap was not very long and neither was my time at Barks, Barks and Barks. Back to the hunt for a new job.

I Can’t Drive 55

With resume in paw I started out to see if I could get another job, and much to my surprise it did not take that long. There is definitely something to be said for being cute and charming.

A couple of weeks later I got a job delivering packages. Here is a picture of my Supervisor taking my picture for my ID badge. At this point my Supervisor realized I could not see out the window, so I was demoted to passenger status only, and all I had to do was look cute. I could not believe my ears! My dream job at last!

Could I Be Any Cuter?

So, as traumatic as this whole job hunting experience was, I can now pay my cell phone bill. I even have some money left over for Sushi. Yes, I love me some Sushi.

But best of all, my days are lots of fun. I enjoy riding in the truck cab, looking cute, and barking at those idiots who run red lights. Not only that, when my driver is out of the cab, making his deliveries, I watch over our precious cargo.

And….. I have worked out a budget with my accountant. I have seen the light and I am planning on being both frugal and debt free for the rest of my life. I’m pretty sure that Betty would would love that.
