Just watch it, it's great!

Are there also folks looking for unmotivated, unenthusiastic postdocs or graduate students? Judging from how often I see these words in ads or postings, there must be some ads I am missing...

This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)
