Who doesn’t love dogs? Frankly, bad people. There are exceptions but, let’s be honest, they’re so few and far between that you have better odds of going a week without metro delays than finding a nice person that doesn’t like dogs. So without further ado let’s examine why exactly we all like dog people.

1. Dog people are compassionate.

They care about something other than themselves… like a lot. Have you ever met someone with a dog that didn’t think their furry friend was the best thing since sliced bread?


2. People with dogs are more fun.

Why? Because dogs are more fun. Dogs like to do fun stuff so their people like to do fun stuff with them.


3. Dog friends are the best kind of friends.

There are friends, there are best friends, and then there are dog friends. Dog friends do fun stuff like all dog people do, and while you’re doing that fun stuff you get to play with their fluffy friend. Also dog friends get you; they know when you see a dog on the street that your only option is to stop what you’re doing and pet them. And that doesn’t bother your dog friends because they’re petting the dog too.


4. Dog people are more accepting.

They’re forced to be this way because undoubtedly their dog is weird. All dogs are weird in their own way but we love them anyway. I mean look how cute they are even when they’re drooling on themselves and running into walls.

Here's a video to prove how cute they are, even when they're a little off. http://dylansdogblog.tumblr.com/post/141560233076/...


5. Owning a dog is like always wearing a sign that says “go ahead, be friends with me.”

When other people see you with a dog you are 8,398,237,239,728 times more approachable. That’s a statistical fact, trust me, I took AP Statistics in high school. (OK, I'm kidding about the statistical fact).


6. Dog's make the best wing-men.

Because you have a dog and you’re more approachable, striking up a conversation that good looking guy or girl at the coffee shop is 9,198,133,123 times easier.


7. If you don’t like dogs, what do you like?

Cats are boring, bunnies run away, birds are loud, nobody wants to hug your pet porcupine, and if you have a thing for snakes I automatically don’t trust you (yes that means you and your Voldemort lookin' self).


8. Dog people like other dog people and that brings you lots of benefits.

You're a dog person, I'm a dog person, I think we're going to get along great. Oh you happen to be hiring? Even better.


9. Dogs spread happiness like wildfire.

Sure your house is covered in dog hair and so are your clothes but nobody cares because puppy! Anyone who enters your home leaves in a better mood, even grumpy Aunt Gertrude.


10. If you still don’t think dog people are the best kind of people think about this…

You probably are a dog person even if you don’t consider yourself one already. How do I know? Watch or read "Marley and Me,"…and try not to cry….Exactly.

My brother may have some questionable opinions however this is one I can certainly get behind. Dogs are great and people are mostly great so therefore people who love dogs are the greatest kind of people. It’s science.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.
