A salesman dropped in to see a business customer. Not a soul was in the office except a big dog emptying wastebaskets. The salesman stared at the animal, wondering if his imagination could be playing tricks on him. The dog looked up and said, “Don't be surprised. This is just part of my job.”

一個銷售員要去見客戶。但是辦公室里只有一只狗在叼著垃圾桶里的東西。銷售員心想，這一定是在和我開玩笑。這時狗抬起頭，說：“不要驚訝，這也是我的工作?！?/div>

“Incredible!” exclaimed the man. “I can't believe it! Does your boss know what a prize he has in you? An animal that can talk!”

“不可思議！”銷售員叫道。“這不可能！你們老板知道他擁有什么嗎！一只會說話的動物！”

“No, no,” pleaded the dog. “Please don't! If he finds out I can talk, he'll make me answer the phone as well!”

“不不，”狗哀求道，“千萬別說！如果他發(fā)現(xiàn)我可以說話，他會讓我也去接電話的！”
