I'm lying in wet grass and mud in stupid
camouflage on a Saturday morning my arms
and legs are chafed from walking in the
forest for so long I've got a fresh
scrape on my knee and to think I could
have been drinking coffee with Kristin
flipping through a magazine and taking a
selfie at the spa
and also at this very moment I have a
deer in my sights within just a few
seconds he will take his last breath
after all I rarely miss a product of the
school of dad this is all his idea
I am against the killing of animals and
Jackie why are you mumbling don't
hesitate shoot before he disappears
hello everyone as you've already figured
out my name is Jackie and I'm 16 years
old my father always dreamed of going
hunting and fishing with his son
teaching him how to fight and play
football but since I have no brothers
only three younger sisters the role of
good son fell on my shoulders when I got
black belt in karate I was allowed to
stop but I don't miss the hunting and
fishing season so it looked like we had
a family in front of us two males and
three females you can only shoot at
males one deer is standing directly
behind the female and is in a bad
position the second right in my sights I
hold my breath he won't be my first
trophy dad is nearby he freezes like me
his tongue even sticks out a little in
anticipation of fresh prey I pause and
hear dad cocking his rifle too and Stan
his business partner does the same the
second deer comes out from behind the
female apparently we're going to leave
with two carcasses but not today I shot
into the air the frightened animals hid
in the forest I didn't even look at dad
I knew that I made him very angry it
wasn't the first time I don't know what
your usual summer vacation plans are but
for me it was fishing I had a feeling I
would remember this one for a long time
dad had been wanting to teach me a
lesson for ruining his hunting trip on
the last day of the season I like
fishing much more than hunting because
you
can just let fish go after you catch it
true dad doesn't always want to release
the fish even though it's the law he
thinks he makes the rules for him it's
not about the experience but the result
Jacky why are you dragging your feet
again get over here and help me I did it
I caught her a minute later we had
reeled in a white shark it was small
about two and a half feet but still a
shark
dad that's cool let me snap a photo of
you with it and then we'll let it go
these are endangered you've helped
enough today
that's enough of the conservation
nonsense when you're around me he loaded
the fish into a saltwater tank and we
drove home we had a new home ready for
her a huge underground aquarium it cost
an incredible amount of money and has
been waiting for a suitable tenant for a
long time but even in such conditions
how long would a white shark cub last in
captivity did my father really not
understand this he threw her a fish but
the shark wouldn't eat it then he took a
couple of photos and videos tried to
feed it again and again to no avail
after a couple of hours he completely
lost all interest in the shark his work
called him and he had to leave for seven
to ten days what should I do with the
shark how do I feed it I don't know try
feeding it the cat her meow has annoyed
me for a long time
okay don't be so angry I'm just joking
don't worry nothing's going to happen to
the shark before I get back but later
we'll make some shark soup have you ever
tried it he looked at the fish in the
aquarium that he had just sentenced to
death and added and will get its head
stuffed where should I hang it I don't
think it would look right next to the
grizzly bear head I stood with my mouth
open for a few more seconds until he
left the house I stayed with the shark I
began reading aloud various facts about
sharks which I had found on the internet
mine looked at me with one eye or the
other depending on which direction it
was facing it even seemed like it
understood me I was very worried the
dead had not been able to feed her and
so I brought it fresh fish
I tapped the fish on the glass and my
white shark swam over to me at one point
I lost my balance and my whole hand
dipped into the water right in front of
her mouth she took the fish and swam
along my hand I could feel her smooth
skin good girl that's a good shark eat
the fish do you want me to bring you
more after three days had passed she
seemed completely tame she reacted to my
voice and took food only from me one of
my sisters threw her a fish but the
shark wouldn't eat it my father called
one day to tell me that he was coming
back early he asked me how his catch was
doing he had found an excellent soup
recipe for our exotic dinner one more
day and the head of my pet shark would
be on my father's wall I couldn't sleep
and called a friend Dylan was at my
house in 15 minutes
his mouth hung open as he looked at it
you've caught white shark a white shark
can't believe it get a hold of yourself
we're going to save her i lured her to
the edge of the tank you wouldn't
believe how hard it was to pull this
baby by the tail we spent even more time
carrying saltwater from the aquarium to
the tank that my dad had used to bring
the shark in it was going back in that
same tank we left for the ocean early in
the morning and released the shark to
where it belonged
goodbye grow up to be a good girl and
never hunt people I wish that I could
have swam away with her I had no idea
what I was going to tell dad my younger
sister said that at first my father
looked around for a long time in the
water and figured that the shark had
died and was lying somewhere behind the
reef at the bottom he was trying to
decide who to send down to get it when I
walked in she's already in the ocean dad
he was furious he was cursing and
yelling in rage then he asked whether I
had hurt myself and offered to order
pizza for dinner
the next day he told me that I didn't
have to go fishing and hunting with him
if I didn't want to and patted me on the
shoulder that was the highest
manifestation of his love
apparently he understood me
and that's it thanks for listening to my
story

hi everyone I'm Chris I'm always
surrounded by beautiful women and guys
envy me because I have a dream job but
I'm not a rock star or a Hollywood actor
I just sniff girls for money I'll give
you the rundown of how I do it my
you the rundown of how I do it my began the moment I failed my college
began the moment I failed my college
entrance exam I walked home not knowing
how to deliver the bad news to my
parents along the way I took a flyer
from a guy who was handing them out it
suddenly occurred to me that I might end
up handing out flyers to for a whole
week I was depressed spending time on
the computer drinking coke and eating
chips I finally decided to pull myself
together
I opened a job search site and started
looking I ended up signing up for an
interview at a pharmaceutical company at
the time I only had a vague idea of what
the job might be when I googled it I
found out that I might have to stand on
a conveyor line and inspect an infinite
number of batches of tablets as they
travel along it Shawn the next morning I
arrived at the company office I was
asked to fill out several questionnaires
than a standard interview they became
interested in my medical record
especially the point about me possibly
having hyperosmia and increased
sensitivity to smells when a person has
hyperosmia they can smell better than
other people so they offered me an
interesting job with a probationary
period the position was called a
deodorant tester my task was to smell
jars of aromas and describe the smells I
would say things like this fragrance
contains notes of green tea like the air
on the plantations of Sri Lanka after
rain in the end I was considered a
suitable candidate so I got the job and
was in heaven from then on because I and
five other colleagues with the same
ability had to sniff the armpits of
beautiful girls for hours at a time it's
impossible for a machine to replicate
the human sense of smell because people
ultimately evaluate the result so a
human tester determines how well
deodorants mask the smell of sweat
depending on whether physical activity
time
day and other factors for 24 hours the
girls were put through training worthy
of astronauts they swam in the pool ran
on a treadmill lifted weights were
exposed to different temperature
conditions slept drank a lot of water
and tried different foods after each
activity it was my turn to do my job
because I had to check how effective the
deodorant was at repelling sweat and how
its scent presented under different
circumstances after a test I would fill
out a report and I felt like a superhero
with super smell at first it was awkward
for me to sniff strangers it embarrassed
me a little but when the women standing
in a row with raised arms would smile at
me I realized this was my dream job I
was smelling this one girl and she kept
putting her arm down because she was
ticklish I tried to raise her arm to
smell it again and she just laughed her
laugh was so contagious that's how my
girlfriend Samantha and I met my work
felt like a party and I thought I had
found my calling my friends who got into
college were jealous of me they would
constantly ask about my work where I was
always surrounded by beautiful women and
got paid a high salary what could be
better of course sometimes my girlfriend
gets jealous but it's a job and nothing
more the job of my dreams where do you
work what is your dream job write it in
