I recently took a "Writing Exam", and this section was supposed to demonstrate your ability to take something that you're familiar with, and write a step-by-step for use by those who might not be so familiar with such things. Humor was optional, but recommended. You can let me know how I did and if it was helpful. :) So here it goes:

How to Feed Your Cat:
1) Pick up the bowl and wash it; take the anxious cat out of the bowl and put it back on the floor;
2) Select the can of food from the cupboard; take the helpful cat out of the cupboard and put it back on the floor;
3) Open the can of food; gently restrain the cat from trying to help removing the food from the can;
4) Dump as much of the food into the bowl as possible, once again, avoiding the cat’s assistance;
5) Pick up the bowl and all the food possible from the floor, from the miscoordinated human-feline operation gone awry; leave the cat on the floor to clean up the mess;
6) Stand idle for the 2.437 nanoseconds it takes the cat to get bored of the clean-up and return its attention back to the food evolution at-paw;
7) Get as much of the remaining food out of the can into the bowl before the cat begins assisting again;
8) Grasp the bowl firmly, holding it on the counter, preventing feline-assisted movement, as you are throwing the now empty can into the trash;
9) pick up the bowl - deal the with the scratches of an obviously starving-to-death feline later - and take the bowl back over to where it normally lives; disregard the incessant “mrow-mrow-mrow” sounds coming from said feral creature;
10) Put on the pre-staged welder’s gloves, and place the bowl onto the floor; when the cat attack of the food with your now-gloved hand in the way settles, step back and place the glove back where it can be used for the next feeding time;
Fini!
