I really believe the expression, "pets are a great judge of character." Have you ever noticed how your pets will react strongly to someone who later on turns out to be a real jerk? The picture to the left is a perfect example. It shows Jessica, my step-daughter, who came over yesterday. Whenever Jess comes over, she sits down and all of the pets are drawn to her like a magnet. As you can see in the photo she has two of our seal point Siamese curled up on or next to her, and of course, our crazy, insane dog, Sammy. I don't even want to know how Sammy wound up in the chair with her in such a blissful and relaxed position!
So, here's the plan - in the future when I have a business deal, I am going to invite the person over to my house, make them sit in the recliner and simply wait. If they don't have a dog or a cat sitting on or near them within two minutes, then their name goes to the "suspicious list." This list, of course, will warrant a much deeper and more through investigation of their moral fiber.
This new way of doing business will also be a great way to pick out a new service or business. Say we're choosing an interior designer. We invite all prospective applicants to our house and sit them in the "chair." We can speak with them for five minutes and then simply wait. We obviously won't need interview notes. We will just count how many cats/dogs are sitting on their lap. The one with the most pets wins the contract.
I think this is a great idea and I intend to implement it immediately. I've invited a representative of the following religious groups to come speak with us about joining their church or belief system: Catholic, Methodist, Jewish, Baptist and Wiccan.
This should be fun!
Have a purrable day...
Nick
