His enthusiasm for life was gone. He refused to follow doctors orders, and his sour attitude made everyone upset when they visit him. Dad was left alone. So I asked Dad to come to live with me on my small farm, hoping the fresh air would help him adjust. Within a week after he moved in, I regretted the invitation. He criticized everything I did. I became frustrated. Something had to be done.One day I read an article which said when given dogs, depressed patients would be better off. So I drove to the animal shelter that afternoon. As soon as I got there, a pointers eyes caught my attention. They watched me calmly.A staff member said: “He got here two weeks ago and weve heard nothing. His time is up tomorrow.”I turned to the man in horror. “You mean youre going to kill him?”“Maam,” he said gently. “We dont have room for every unclaimed dog.”The pointers calm brown eyes awaited my decision. “Ill take him,” I said.I drove home with the dog on the front seat beside me. I was helping it out of the car when Dad walked onto the front porch. “Look what I got you!” I said excitedly. Dad wrinkled his face. “I dont want it,” he muttered, turning back towards the house. Then, suddenly, the dog pulled free from my grasp. He sat down in front of my Dad. Dads anger melted, and soon he was hugging the dog. This was the beginning of a warm friendship. Dad named the dog Cheyenne. Together they spent long hours walking down dusty lanes and relaxing on the banks of streams. Dads bitterness faded, and he and Cheyenne went on to make many friends. Then, late one night two years later, I felt Cheyennes cold nose burrowing (搜寻) through my bed covers. He had never before come into my bedroom at night.

Believe it or not, there are some people who actually get paid to do that! According to Reuben Reynoso, a professional mattress(床垫) tester at San Franciscos McRoskey Mattress Factory that still makes every mattress by hand, it is real work and needs some training. For a start, its not all about jumping to new heights or doing tricks like professional athletes, but rather about feeling each area of the mattress carefully to detect the filling. In order to do it right, every bit of the mattress has to be tested slowly and deliberately.Over the years, Reynoso has figured out the perfect routine. He begins by placing a protective mat over the mattress so that it doesnt get dirty or absorb the smell from his feet. Then begins the fun-he steps to the middle of an edge and then takes five steps back and five steps forward. In this way, he slowly but surely, covers the entire surface. The key according to him is to find the perfect number of jumps-Too many and he will end up destroying the mattress completely. Too few? And it will not fit into the giant machine for that final sewing! Who knew a job that sounds so simple could have so many skills!While Reuben will not reveal how he got into this profession, he will admit that it is more fun than being a carpenter, roofer, construction worker and railroad engineer-all jobs he has tried previous to finding his true profession!32.
