00:00The Lucy Show
00:12Starring Lucille Ball
00:18Co-starring Gail Gordon
00:30Mrs. Carmichael
00:56Those boots were made for walking
00:59Oh, well I'm having trouble with this typewriter
01:03Well you shouldn't have, it's a brand new electric typewriter
01:05A child could run it
01:07Well I'll bet Tom Edison himself couldn't work this one
01:10Couldn't I have my old typewriter back?
01:12No, you simply have got to learn how to run that electric typewriter
01:16Well couldn't I break in slowly like maybe on a gas typewriter?
01:21This is no time to be facetious, Mrs. Carmichael
01:24Well
01:24Now did you put the paper in properly?
01:27Of course
01:27Did you hit the keys properly?
01:29Yes, I did
01:30Did you plug it in properly?
01:33Oh, plug it in
01:35Oh, you must think I'm a perfect idiot
01:38Nobody's perfect
01:40But you'll do until the real thing comes along
01:44Now, Mrs. Carmichael
01:47This is an electric typewriter
01:49Yes, sir
01:50This is the plug for the electric typewriter
01:54Yes, sir
01:54And this is the outlet that supplies the electricity for the electric typewriter
01:59Oh, Mr. Mooney, I don't
02:00Now, please don't interrupt
02:02Now, the typewriter will not work without electricity
02:05We must plug it in
02:06So
02:07Mr. Mooney, I
02:08Please don't interrupt
02:10So
02:12We plug this into that
02:14Thusly
02:16That's what I tried to tell you
02:25That outlet has a short circuit
02:28Now, if you don't mind, Mr. Mooney
02:31We plug this into that
02:37Thusly
02:39See, Mr. Mooney
02:53This machine is wonderful
02:56You know, it practically types by itself
02:58I'll bet someday they invent a typewriter that does type by itself
03:02And then you wouldn't need me
03:04May I live to see the day?
03:09Well, I don't think that was a very nice thing for you to say
03:12No, you don't
03:13No, I don't
03:14You know something?
03:15You're always finding fault with me
03:17If I'm so incompetent, how come you picked me from the secretarial pool?
03:22Picked you?
03:23You were the only one left
03:25You know, you're lucky you got me
03:29Good help is very hard to find these days
03:31I know, I'm still looking
03:33It'll be a lot easier for me to go out and get another job
03:38Than for you to find another secretary
03:40You get another job?
03:43Ha!
03:45I could get another job if I wanted to
03:47Well, it would be very interesting to see just what kind of a job you think you're qualified for
03:53Well, I'm qualified for a lot more than you ever give me credit for
03:56And I'd like a chance to prove it, I'll tell you that
03:58All right, good, good
03:59Why don't we start by looking in the help-wanted section of the newspaper?
04:03That's a very good idea
04:04Oh, here we are
04:06Help-wanted female
04:07Excellent position open for unusually talented young lady
04:13College graduate
04:15With a master's degree in psychology
04:18And a thorough background in calculus, trigonometry, and mathematical analysis
04:24Must speak six languages
04:27And be expert at operating a digital computer
04:32What's their phone number?
04:36You're going to apply for the job?
04:39No, I'm going to call them and tell them not to count on me
04:41I don't think not
04:44Oh, here's another job that you're not qualified for
04:47Mr. Mooney, if you don't mind, I'd prefer to select my own new job
04:51Well, I'm just trying to help
04:52Thank you, but I'd like to find it
04:54Oh, here's one
04:56It's an ad for an employment agency that specializes in unusual jobs
05:00The unique employment agency
05:02We get odd positions for odd people
05:04Oh, that's you, all right
05:06Never mind, I'm going right down and see them
05:09They'll never find a job for anyone as incompetent as you are
05:12I am not incompetent
05:14I know what I'm doing every minute, and don't you forget it
05:17Oh, never mind that, never my job
05:19I'll take care of it
