If you thought that you had it tough finding a job in this day and age, just think how tough it is to land roughly the only non-tourism based job that a reindeer can apply for. It is the most coveted position and there are only a few spots on the team. We understand that these reindeer have spent years training and preparing for this opportunity, but in reality none of them will get the chance to fly with Santa. The reason being that the job opening, like many nowadays, is a ghost position only posted for appearances. In reality Santa’s reindeer crew has been selected years in advance and these applications are only relevant in the case of a last minute injury.

There are many different levels of cat lover. The most basic of which would put out a simple pile of food on the floor alongside a plastic box full of water. As you can tell this is a pretty extravagant kind of cat lover, obsessed might even be the word to use. Especially seeing as all this fancy equipment has been laid out, outside, for a cat who you do not even know, a cat with whom you have no relationship, you have no connection to. A cat who could easily just up and leave tomorrow. Yet this person was more than willing to crack out the fine china and silverware.
