How impossible is your job?

If your job is as impossible to do as herding cats, then this day should be celebrated by you.

Have you ever tried to make or cat or any other cat perform a task?

If so, then you will know how impossible it is to get them to do anything.

As National Cat Herders Day is celebrated worldwide, people are encouraged to take pride in their stressful jobs.

The idea of herding cats was apparently popularised by information technologies expert Dave Platt when he said, “Managing senior programmers is like herding cats.”

This day was created for people who can relate to tackling a task, problem or job that seems nearly impossible or complicated. Something like herding cats.

Today is all about embracing those hurdles head-on.

Can your job be compared to herding cats? Celebrate this day by letting us know what your occupation is and what it entails.
