A Nigerian in the US had been unable to secure a job and one
day he found an ad reading “zoo worker wanted”. He walked in to indicate his
interest and was invited for interview
Interviewer: are you available to work as a zoo worker?
Man: yes of course
Interviewer: … the nature of the job requires you to work
inside the animal cage, your job is to be in a monkey costume and act like a
monkey to entertain our visitors…. Can you do that?
Man: ...ehh, you mean my work is to play the monkey in the
zoo?
Interviewer: yes, can you do that?
Man (since he had no choice)….o-k-a-y
Interviewer: can you resume immediately? If that’s okay with
you
Man: ….e-h- okay
The Nigerian wears his monkey costume and resumes his
schedule as the monkey in the zoo. That same day a boy came to the zoo with his
mother and he saw the monkey in the zoo.
Boy: Mom, look, there’s now a monkey in the zoo! That’s
really cool. But mom this monkey is not behaving like a real monkey, it’s not
jumping and hopping and swinging like a real monkey does
The Monkey-man heard the boy’s nagging for a hopping, jumping
and swinging monkey and decided to behave like a real monkey at least to save
his job. While he was swinging and jumping he jumped over his own cage and
landed inside the adjoining cage… and there was a tiger in that cage! The tiger
in that cage stood up and started walking towards the monkey-man who screamed
at the top of his voice for fear of being devoured by the fierce looking tiger
that was making its way towards him. the tiger got very close to the monkey-man
and to the monkey-man’s shock the tiger spoke and said…”Bros make you take am easy dey jump up and down for here, this cage
no strong o , you just dey come?”…
