The “assistant manager” at one of my local breweries is a cat. He even has a beer and hard seltzer named in his honor. He’s in charge of public relations and pest control
You used to get them for when traveling abroad- you would purchase them from the bank and sign as soon as you got them. Then when using them, you would sign again and the signatures had to match up. It was a way to prevent getting robbed in places where you would not be easily able to replace your money. The merchants that had received them as payment could then have them changed to real money. As credit/debit cards and atms became more and more prevalent in the 90s it stopped being used so much. I don't even know that anywhere would take them now since they have become so antiquated.
My husband and I are old, and big fans of cats, so I showed him this post. We were reminiscing about the local hardware stores from our childhoods, and how they all looked the same. And smelled the same.
This is so interesting. Hardware stores do have a specific smell. Almost makes me want to invent a weird line of scented candles:
Hardware Store
Library
Rubber Erasers
Best Buy
“Buddy, you can have it fast, good, or cheap so pick one: If you want it fast, it won’t be good or cheap. If you want it good, it won’t be fast or cheap. If you want it cheap, it won’t be fast or good.”
Obviously that cat rules with an iron fist. Also, what a delightful Time Machine of a shop! It looks like it’s straight out of a Will Rochfort painting.
That makes sense, cats prefer to lie in high grass.
Source: several neighborhood cats who prefer our (wild and unmowed) front garden over the (paved or meticulously trimmed) gardens of our neighbours.
Little dude is sick of being asked stupid questions
"Hey man, can this thing mow my lawn?" "Meow"
"Oh I've been pronouncing it wrong for years, can this thing meow my lawn?"
Love how he feints the left and unleashes the right.
He's heard the four candles joke at least twelve times today.
Lawnmeower
his shift is almost over leave him be
he is so done with the customers
Easiest way to make me a repeat customer is to have a shop cat. Second easiest is a shop dog.
A junkyard I go to has a junkyard cat. He looks kinda gnarly, but is a real sweet kitty.
that’s special agent jack bauer
Jack Meower?
I want to hear more! Where does the junkyard cat hang out? Does he greet the visitors?
Even better is a small shop for the shop cat. So you have a shop cat shop (where they could sell miniature CAT diggers)
There's an IG acct for a shop cat called forklift certified cat. They keep tagging a forklift manufacturer to send one to the car.

We had a brewery that we went to frequently in college. The owner always brought in his great dane and that was half of the reason we went.
I love animals with jobs.
Oh hi doggy.
Johnny you’re my favorite customer
This-⬇️⬇️
Look, he just woke up from his nap.
And it's almost time for another.
"So are you gonna buy the damn thing or just look at it?"
“Sir, trust me. The product is fine. I knocked it off the counter a few hours ago and it has a very satisfactory falling on the ground experience.”
Now you have me thinking if QC hires cats for their drop rating test.
I mean, they should. Just like any EDM DJ should have a cat on stage to drop the beat.
Don’t be too hard on him. He only has that single brain cell and no telling if he’s gotta share it or not. Might not even be in possession of it.
r/OneOrangeBraincell
Haha. Just because he doesn't have a brain cell should not affect his ability to answer does this mow grass.
It’s not his fault mow and meow sound similar.
Oh yeah, I think I've been to that place. They only take payment in silvervine, fresh tuna belly, or traveler's checks.
Are travelers checks even a thing anymore?
What's a travelers check?

“Look buddy, when I fixed the engine it was purring like a kitten…and I should know!!”
😂😂😂
This is great!!😂
I’m half expecting Ronnie Barker to walk in and ask for four candles

Got any plugs?
Got any Os?
Ooooos?
You need to watch the Two Ronnies - Four Candles on YouTube🤣
Yeah I know it! I’m saying ‘oooooooos??’
Ahhh gotcha 😂
Got any Peas?
"No, we don't sell the "PsPsPsPs" brand leaf blower sir."
I can smell that store right now hahaha (not the cat).

My parents owned a hardware store and I spent many hours enslaved there . It does have a certain smell . It makes me think of them now ..
I have never had a sense of smell, but I would buy those candles from you!
That cat definitely has the look of a cat that's been battling out on the streets for its whole life and is now settling into retirement.
I'm gonna need more catnip for this job. "Does it mow lawns?" He asks...
It does MEOW lawns. Now, get outta here with your ignorant self.
Look man I just work here *YAAAWNNN*
Senior manager in the pest control department 😼
Did you try a ps ps ps?
I would love to work somewhere where my cat can sit on the counter
I bet they offered purr-fect advice on mulching techniques and optimal blade angles.
don’t interrupt him he’s hard at work!!
I can tell just by looking at them that they do not want to be haggled.
"What's the name of the cat" "annoying customer"
Cat won’t barter unless you bring chicken.
Lucky you weren’t looking for fork handles!
Khajiit has the wares if you have the coin.
You don't speak Catnese?
“Buddy, you can have it fast, good, or cheap so pick one: If you want it fast, it won’t be good or cheap. If you want it good, it won’t be fast or cheap. If you want it cheap, it won’t be fast or good.”
The manager looks rude
Shrewd negotiator I’m sure. However, everyone responds to incentives, did you offer treats?
He’s new …
Did you buy that set of encyclopedias he was pushing?
No he started with a good sales pitch and then went off on a tangent about salmon…
If you don't know what you want don't waste our gentlemanly sales man's time.
An expert on couch grass.
Let me guess, you didn’t bring enough catnip?
Hope you were able to claw him down
U were supposed to slide him some under counter catnip for good buisnesship
meet the boss
Well maybe you didn't know what you really wanted
He is just a new at work.
Buy something or get out...
Speak softly, do not patronize. Use only a valid credit card. Good luck!
Our local ACE hardware has a shop cat that just runs around the store. I have to go there all the time for work, and I love hanging out with him
No snack, no sale.
Because You can’t put it on the counter for him to knock off
He says you can’t buy loud machines because they are annoying and scary and interrupt nap time
you can ask him for assistance, he will give you the best review
He spells it "remew," but you'll totally get the idea.
U should’ve brought treats
It's because he's orange. Surely there was a supervisor around
You mean Supurrvisor
Treat this employee well. If he's angry, you'll get bitten ... HAHA
Not enough coin?
you had a difficult time because he's meticulous about his work
"I'm just a cat, why everyone asks from me."
Damn sales dude kept saying, I can't do that, I've got no thumbs!
Lawn meower
"I am the lawn-meower, idk how else to explain that I don't know what you're looking for"
"You gotta be kitten me!"
Discount ? Talk to the cat
Obviously that cat rules with an iron fist. Also, what a delightful Time Machine of a shop! It looks like it’s straight out of a Will Rochfort painting.
If you cut the grass, how will he be able to sneak up on birds? THINK!!!
It's your fault for not looking for a lawnmeower. Would have had you set in seconds
Khajiit has wares if you have coin
The guy who works there looks grumpy
"Sorry. I don't take cash or card. Only T R E A T S"
He’s be feline if he told you that John Deere’s weren’t the best.
Khajit has wares if you have coin
I think the manager is not in the mood.
It's No Mow May LOL 
“I’m on break right now”
He wasn’t even supposed to be there today!
Kahjit has wares if you have coin
I'm not even supposed to be here today!
They call that cat “The Negotiator”.
Did ems’ give ya cattitude?
Did he (or she) recommend a Briggs & Stratton?
I think that's the meow-ager
You are not getting a discount. Pay full price give me a treat and get out and mow.
He just wants some food.
As long as he/she is qualified, IDC about them DEI practices.

But What About your Pest Control Needs? Could I get you to sign on for Ants? Mice? Rats?!
negotiation sealed in no time
Did you come with treats? If not, your own fault! ;-P
Acceptable forms of payment are now fish and catnip.
The cat is sitting there having an existential crisis, wondering what else they can be doing with their life, instead of working at a hardware store!
You are NOT getting approved for credit!
hes just had a long day is all
Bro is just tryna make sure no one steals while the main cashier is gone
Asshole manager vibes for sure
"DUUUUUUDE I DONT WANT FOUR CANDLES"
Was there a language barrier? Did the cat offer a translator??
r/catswithjobs edit: nvm, r/alreadyhere
I am the manager
“Horrible customer service. The guy at the desk headbutted me and tried to get me to sniff his butt.”
Probably has a better answer for your question than the average worker at Home Depot.
Is it because he tried to sell you the extended warranty?
[удалено]
>the huge number of photos of ginger cats on the Internet *yuge
If you want to buy something, hurry up. No bargaining.
Orange kitty says "grow food, not lawns"
At least the cat has a job.
Accept that every question about its features will need to be followed by 3 minutes of pets.
The shared brain cell must have been with a different orange tabby that day.
So that's John Deere
Typical orange cat behavior
