I like chasing a stick... I like it even more if that stick is BIG.
I have to say, my humans are pretty good at throwing sticks for me but they look on in exasperation when I disappear into the woods and haul out the largest log I can find.
They don't thik I'll ever get my log off the ground and they're always surprised when I do and then even run with it. They're even more surprised when I whack them on the back of the legs as I run passed... they think I've misjudged the gap, but actually I've got it just right!
But the bottom line to all this is that I'm just trying to teach them a lesson about business and balance.
Now I may be a dog but I'm not stupid... cute, yes... stupid, no...
I know that if I pick up a giant log at one end the other is not going to get off the ground and it's going to be difficult to carry. My humans often get hold of their business by one end or the other... sometimes they're trying to increase doggy biscuits (sorry, I meant income) and they lose sight of the costs. At other times they're controlling costs and lose sight of the need to spend money to get more customers.
They should be more like me.
They should walk on all fours and have fur...
That's as maybe ,but what I really meant is that I pick up my log in the middle and it balances just right. I can run much faster with it than if I had it by one end and had to drag it.
In business, like with logs, you have to bite it in the middle and the thing will balance. It's a false economy to be too tight witht he money, but you can't spend as though there's no tomorrow.
Pick it up in the middle, get some balance and, no matter how heavy it is, the business can be carried.
Boy, I'm good... just off to look cute in the shop window.
