[Dailydrool] How To Work From Home If You Are Owned By A Basset Hound

[Rebecca Stanton]

1     Download dictation  and plug in foot pedal, headphones etc. Try to ignore 
basset glaring from his bed at your feet at the obvious disturbance this         
is causing.
2    Start dictation.  Notice that basset has got up and has walked into the 
kitchen, where he is standing pitifully
3    Take headphones off and follow basset into kitchen.  Get a tiny biscuit 
from tin, walk back into lounge, put it on his bed.  Basset sits down.  Put     
headphones back on
4    Take a deep breath as basset leaves bed once more with a definite HURRUMPH 
and heads for the back door which (of course) isn't open
5   Get up and let basset out into the garden where he happily finds old bone
6    Sit back down, put headphones on and type for a few minutes.  *Frown*.  
Better check on basset.  Take headphones off and look out window to see basset 
staring balefully back.
7     Start typing again.  *Frown*  Not happy about this.  Check again.  Basset 
missing.  Check back door to find basset staring in indignantly, with 
face almost pressed up to glass. Suppress laughter.
8    Open back door and say 'come on in'.  Basset lays down in doorway so door 
cannot be shut.  Go and get bone from outside and bring it into         the 
lounge with basset trotting behind.
9     Place on basset bed.  Put headphones on once more,start typing and try to 
ignore the fact that basset has got up with bone in his mouth and is heading to 
the (unopened) back door. 

*Sigh*
