@jobjenny Here is my six step plan: 1. Journalism prof tells you to join Twitter in 2009 2. Sign up, don't use it 3. Work odd jobs for a few years 4. Land a media job in 2011, still don’t use Twitter 5. Use it in 2018 when launching biz 6. Make viral tweet about only having 300 followers

Gus has bells on the back door to let us know when he needs to go out. He gets a treat when he comes back in. I don't always watch him out there when I'm working. I think he's figured out he can just hang outside for a little bit and then get a treat. He's got me well trained.
