Even Dogs are Losing Their Jobs

This dog was fired because health inspectors said he posed a health risk to customers. Obviously, they've never been to the DMV.

Cody, a chocolate Labrador, has for months greeted customers at the Clearwater BP gas station and convenience store at U.S. 19 and Nursery Road. But Thursday morning, a state health inspector stopped by and issued a warning to Karim Mansour, the store's owner: Remove the dog or the Health Department would declare all of Mansour's food products — mostly bottled sodas, Slim Jims and candy bars — unfit for consumption.

Here's a video of Cody hard at work before being "fired.''
