"B" Employed

Greetings my dear, dear dogsciples! It has been far too long, yet again, since we had our last dogvotional, but, alas, it is high time for another! Today we are discussing something very near and dear to my little doggie heart, and that is employment. See, I take my employment very seriously. I'm probably the most dedicated employee there ever was. See, I am employed as a lap dog...yes, very strenuous work, indeed. Why, yes, I do have a degree! Why do you ask? Anyway, I spend my 40 hour weeks delving into the laps of welcome visitors. Notice I said "welcome"....I'm not very fond of "unwelcome" visitors. Sometimes I try to bite them...but that's for another dogvotional. Back to the lap delving. Yes, I enjoy a good, nice lap to sleep my day away in. No lap? No bother! I enjoy the back of couches as well. I guess you could say I'm a professional sleeper. Tough job, but someone has to do it. See, my Grandpops was adamant that I find a job once I decided to move back to Jasper with my mom. And, believe me, I needed something to do with my time! So, I searched high and low, applied to and fro, but nothing seemed to come up. That is until one fateful day, my Grandpops, who was in an unrecognizably good mood, told me he would employ me as a lap dog, full-time. He would even pay me above minimum-wage! That's 10 dog treats an hour for you guys out there keeping tabs... So, here I am, a grown, full-time working dogvotionalist. I'm glad that I can pave my way into the future one nap-in-a-lap at a time! What were you supposed to get from this short dogvotional? That being employed is dog-wesome!! Yes, not only do you make a little money for yourself, but you keep out of Grandpops' hair as well. A big congratulations to my Scribe for accepting her job as well -- now she can stay out of Grandpops hair, too. Now, as we draw this dogvotional to a close, I ask that you raise your right hand (or paw), and repeat after me: "I, (state your name), do hereby claim employment in my life -- I will be employed either through action or thought, not necessarily for pay, but for pleasure. I will enjoy my employment and promise to help others out with employment as well. I will return again for another installment of B: The Dogovotionalist's dogvotionals and will until then remain happily, yes, happily, employed!" Thank you for joining me today for my "B" Employed dogvotional. I hope to see you all next week for our next installment. Until then, fair dogsciples, stay employed! B: The Dogvtionalist
