Jamaican living in the States was down on his luck. Out of work and
broke, he started going around to various companies in the city begging
for a job, any job. Finally he got to the zoo.

he zookeeper looked stressed out."The monkey escaped last night", the
zoo-keeper said, "if you are willing to put on a monkey suit and stand
in the monkey's cage for a couple days, I'll pay you" The Jamaican
immediately accepted.

The pay was OK and the work wasn't hard.He swung from the tree, and the
kids fed him fruits and nuts. He actually started enjoying himself.

He even started adding a few acrobatic moves that he had seen on TV.
Later in the afternoon he swung a bit too vigorously, lost his grip and
flew clean out of the monkey cage and landed in the lion cage next
door.

The lion let out a huge roar and our friend in the monkey suit bawled
out, "LAWD GOD, MI DEAD NOW".

The huge lion immediately pounced on him, grabbed >him by the throat
and whispered, "Man shut yuh raas, if yuh evah >mek mi lose di likkle
wuk yuh si...A bite out u rass"
