A SMART DOG

Four men were bragging about how smart their dogs are. The first man was an Engineer, the second man was an Accountant, the third man was a Chemist, the fourth was a Government Worker.

First, the Engineer called to his dog, "T-square, do your stuff." T-square
ambled over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen and promptly drew a
circle, a square, and a triangle. Everyone agreed that was pretty smart.

But the Accountant said his dog could do better. He called his dog and said,
"Spreadsheet, do your stuff."  Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided the cookies into equal piles of
three cookies each. Everyone agreed that was good.

But the Chemist said his dog could do better. He called his dog, "Measure, do
your stuff." Measure got up, walked over to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a ten ounce glass from the cupboard and poured exactly eight ounces without spilling a drop. Everyone agreed that was good.

Then the three men turned to the Government Worker and said, "What can your dog do?" The Government Worker called to his dog and said, "Coffee Break, do your stuff." Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, peed on the paper, sexually assaulted the other three dogs, claimed he injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for Workers compensation and went home for the rest of the day on sick leave.
