Gorilla And Lion

There is a story about a college student who was desperately in need of a summer job. He discovered the local zoo was looking for help. He couldn’t think of a more creative way to spend the summer, but he wasn’t prepared for the job description. When he went to apply, the zookeeper explained that they had recently lost their gorilla. “You just can’t have a zoo without a gorilla,” the zookeeper said. “We are expecting a new gorilla by the end of the summer, but, in the meantime, we need someone to dress the part. We’ll pay you well.” The young student was hesitant, but he needed the money, so he agreed. After a couple of hours in the gorilla suit, he found himself almost enjoying the job. But in the awkward costume he could not always see where he was going, and he accidentally stumbled into the lion’s cage. The lion roared violently, throwing the college student into a panic. “Help!” he screamed. “Help! I’m a man in here! I’m a man in this gorilla suit!” Then he heard a voice from inside the lion whisper, “Oh shut up! You’ll get us both fired!”
