An engineer, an accountant, a chemist, a computer scientist and a public servant boasted of having a wonderful dog.
To prove it, the engineer says to his dog:
- Square root, show us what you can do.
The dog trots up to a desk, takes paper and a pencil and quickly draws a square, a circle and a triangle.
The accountant tells his dog named Chiffrier:
- Show them your skill.
The dog goes into the kitchen and comes back with a dozen cookies and places them in 3 equal piles of 4 cookies.
The chemist claims that his dog can do a lot better:
"Thermometer," said he, "make your number!
The dog opens the refrigerator, takes a liter of milk, gets a 10-ounce glass in the cupboard and pours exactly 8 ounces of milk
without spilling a single drop.
The computer scientist believes to supplant them all:
"Drive hard," he commands, "impress them with your turn!
The dog settles in front of a computer, starts it, sends the anti-virus program, sends an email and installs a new game.
The four men turn to the official and tell him:
- And what can your dog do?
"Coffee break," said the official, "show us your talents!
The dog gets up, eats the cookies, drinks the milk, erases all the files from the computer, sexually attacks the engineer's dog, pretends to be
injured on the back while doing so, completes a Work Accident Form and takes a six-month sick leave.
