In Videos: Monkeys Make Terrific Waiters
It's official. Monkeys can do a better job waiting on tables than some humans. What, you don't believe me? Watch these videos. The first one has proper British narration that, in fact, explains a lot. The second has no narration. It's a purer form of monkey business. I so want a monkey to bring me a hot towel the next time I go to a bar. Don't you?
Animal rights activists, take note: The monkeys only work two hours a day. If they work more, they must get a banana break every thirty minutes. Watch both, after the jump.

I've been waiting for this day ever since I saw Planet of the Apes. We have been warned.

I think it was Curious George who broke this glass ceiling for monkeys everywhere when he worked as a pizza delivery-person. I mean pizza delivery-monkey.

I hope these aren't one of those types of monkeys that fling poo. Health inspectors will have enough of a field day as it is.
I just thought of how cute it would be to see a monkey wearing a hair net. Awwww!

My question is: Are the monkeys in the tip pool?

I think this "mandatory tipping" thing is mainly in American blemish. Most developed (as well as underdeveloped) countries don't require you to tip, including Japan, and pay their employees normal wages.

monkeys should be in trees dealing with their monkey business. Besides restaurant work sucks give 'em something fun to do, Poor moneys they should go on strike for good!

Do they wash their hands after each time they scratch their bungholios?
