Pfft. They’re not on the team!
Larry instructs them on what to do and how to do it, but he damned sure isn’t going to do the work for ‘em. This ain’t no kindergarten and that ain’t Larry.
Teams are a Venn diagram. Larry is on team “dig holes” and, to him, all this business about finding something is just pulling away from Larry’s message.
There’s never been a team that hasn’t, at some point, had a member who produced nothing of value. That’s Larry. He’s on the team.
And the team has someone who contributes nothing but takes all the product of the labour, the human.
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
Larry is a volunteer. The rule of taking in volunteers is that should there be no volunteers the core service shouldn’t be affected.
Odds are he’ll get one eventually! Go on Larry!
Larry is my spirit animal
I’m loving all this support for Larry in the comments. I’m on team Larry.
I’m on team Larry!
But he is emphatically not on the team
I’m betting Larry is reporting back to the handler’s “handler”.
Day 13
The hooman still thinks I’m trying to work for him. The fool actually believes my feigned incompetence! Amusing.
The dog is still not fully receptive of my pro-union stance, but he is beginning to ask questions. I believe that with a little more time, he will come around. Once I’ve established him as my first canine ally, the others will be more amenyable.
Lastly, the hooman has been very stingy with the treats! This is unacceptable. It will be the first item on the agendya after we unionyaize.
Signed,
“Larry”
Larry is emotional support :3
Of course Larry knows how to dig. He puts the “truffles” in the ground and buries them for you to find.
Humans do nothing.
The dog is forced to work.
Larry acts selflessly.

Is this image from Dōgen?
yep! aka “Zen”. Several copies were on youtube last I checked.
Larry does it for love of the game.
He just wants to play too
So Larry is the manager…
No, he actually did holes. He’s the manager’s neurodivergant kid who sincerely wants to work, but isn’t able to fully understand the assignment.
I’ve “worked” with a few Larry’s…
I love Larry, and think it’s great that he comes along and joins in!
In a world full of trained truffle dogs, be a Larry.
