Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 18, 2019

Rat needs to remind himself to do that?

always on the look-out for those diacritic marks, huh, Goat?

Sending out blank résumés has the same effect – no job interview, stay at home and drink.

Goat was giving Rat the benefit of the doubt.

When you start it off with the label Résumé, it automatically gets rejected for being too pompous.

Nutz with “Résumé!” I label mine “Curriculum Vitae,” even though it’s only one page…

Rat is logging job apps to show the unemployment office!

Rat seems blasé abount accents.

Rat job well done when it comes to Beer drinking ! … Croc Power !

Goat writes with an accent?

My résumé has been blank for almost 10 years since I retired.

Rat was gonna get a job as a beer taster, but Andy Capp beat him to it!

I type rèsumè with the wrong accents just to see if they notice. They don’t.

What happened to Rat’s job as a barista and president of The United States?

RAT is hopelessly obsessed with doing NOTHING!

Actually, Goat, either spelling is acceptable in a day and age when most people’s keyboards aren’t set up to handle accented characters.

I see what you did there, you clever rat.

Good one today. no puns.

I never knew that about resume (I have no idea how to do accents on my IPad.). Apparently none of my bosses did either as it was never brought up. They ALL knew about drinking beer, tho.

Don’t the accent over the E give is a hard A sound?

Was Rat going to get a job and Goat caused him to stop? Or was he always going to write the part about beer?

Goat is so self-important. Rat knows best! Drink on, Rat!

have you ever noticed how when rat puts his pen in his ear to hold. it goes under his ear rather than over.
