I will apologise for the punch line now before I end up with a lynch mob at the door - it made me smile though.
A man starts his new job at the zoo and is given three tasks.
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.
Realising 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 chimp 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 the lions, he says to himself, because lions
eat anything.
He hurls the corpses into the lion enclosure.
He moved on to the last job, which is to collect honey from the South
American bees. As soon as he starts, he is attacked 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.
Read on if you have to but you may regret this.....................
Later that day a new lion arrives at the zoo.
He wanders up to another lion and says "What's the food like here??"
The lion says "Absolutely brilliant. Today we had fish and chimps with
mushy bees."
