Since my early days of being a puppy I have been a regular part of the Austin Rose team. Given the fact I am scared of everything, including all members of the team, I spend most of my days hiding under the boss’ desk.
Since ruining the office carpet on my first day of work I have become very well behaved and now hold the position of Head of Barketing – a responsibility that I take seriously, particularly when we receive a delivery to the office.
