<p class="has-text-align-justify">Employees with four legs are, hands down, the most interesting ones. Probably the ones that get the most attention from all the customers. Be it a hospital, a library, or a homestay, the fact that a furry staff member is going to grab all the love cannot be denied. Working animals have become a familiar concept in recent times. You feel nothing but loved after seeing a dog working in a hospital. Or a cat serving in a café, however, that service will hardly include your orders! Point is, working animals with human jobs are a bliss to experience. But what if they end up getting some of the most unexpected jobs? Like, imagine coming across a dog who is an elected mayor! Bizarre, right? But this isn’t the only case that has ever happened. Believe us or not, here are 10 such working animals who ended up getting the most famous jobs one can ever imagine!</p>

<p class="has-text-align-justify">Jack made a good name for himself with his famous human job in the railways. Yes, the railways. After an unfortunate incident, James Wide, the signalman in South Africa lost his legs. This accident ended up holding James back to do some of his duties. But thanks to Jack the baboon, James got his job secured while co-working with Jack. It’s hard to believe but Jack worked for 9 years along with James as the supervisor. Jack was responsible for pushing James’s wheelchair and operating the single switches! In fact, Jack became a breadwinner with his 20 cents per day pay!</p>

<p class="has-text-align-justify">This ‘Library Cat for Life’ has a story worth listening to!

In the end, Browser ended up getting the job back. In fact, the cat was entitled the ‘Library Cat for Life’. Fun fact, the council member who was against browsers left the council!</p>
