Having already had to load more paper into the copier, twice today, (5 reams at a time), I mused that there might be a better way.

The solution: a horde of monkeys, to put paper in the 'copier, deliver fresh pens, take dirty coffee mugs to the kitchen and deliver memos and internal mail. Bellhop hats and matching pea jackets obligatory, of course.

Monkeys are bright and just love to do tricks that please us dedicated anthropomorphising humans.

Not only will no-one get any work done, while watching Simple Simon Simian going about his chores, but these staff will work for peanuts!

       What's new about this? I thought they were called entry level employees. (God shoot me down now, before I kill my own self and end up somewhere south of Tempe.)

       True, [bliss], this first crossed my mind when I saw young Kyle lugging bottles of water to the water cooler.   

       Rising from the ashes, [bliss]?

       What Bliss said.

       how will you stop them from flinging poo about the place?
"Ow!, that one had a peanut in it!"
