New Zoo Job

***zorba*** · 07-01-2006

A bloke starts his new job at the zoo and is given three tasks. The first is
to clear the exotic fish pool of weeds. As he does this, a huge fish jumps
out and bites him. To show the others who's boss, he beats it to death with
a spade. Realizing his employer won't be best pleased, he disposes of the
fish by feeding it to the lions, as lions will eat anything. Moving on to
the second job of clearing out the chimpanzee house, he is attacked by the
chimps who pelt him with coconuts. He swipes at two chimps with a spade,
killing them both. What can he do? Feed them to the lions, he says to
himself, because lions eat anything. He hurls the corpses into the lion
enclosure. He moves on to the last job, which is to collect honey from the
South American Bees. As soon as he starts he is attacked and stung by the
bees. He grabs the spade and smashes the bees to a pulp. By now he knows
what to do and throws them into the lion's cage - because lions eat
anything. Later that day a new lion arrives at the zoo and it wanders up to
another lion and says, "What's the food like here?"

The other lions say, "Absolutely brilliant. Today we had fish and chimps
with mushy bees."
