In a Japanese “sake house” in the city of Utsunomiya, north of Tokyo, 2 macaque monkeys, called Yatchan and Fukuchan work as waiters. Most of the customers tip them with boiled soya-beans. The owner Kaoru Otsuka only has them work 2 hour shifts so that he doesn’t violate the animal rights regulations.
daddy ?
Excuse me, waiter? There’s Ebola in my soup.

“Keep it down sir or everyone will want it”
fuk-u-chan?
look how filthy those hands are.
Reminds me of home *sniff*
Working for beans longer than 2 hours a day violates animal rights… Yet humans so often have to work in excess of 8 hours a day for their beans…
what a sad sick little world of twisted up priorities we live in.
@...sylvanish: The difference is that humans are free to choose if and where they work.
@...reboot: leave it some people didn’t attended school ^^
@...MonkeyHitman:
Or childhood.
@...reboot: Really? I would argue otherwise, and I think all the families with both parents working would argue the same, as would all the poor folk struggling to feed themselves despite working daily 12 hour shifts or dual 8 hour daily shifts would also say as much.
I respect you for being intelligent and well off enough to be able to university (verb) yourself into a comfortable place in this world, I did similar with yoga and my teaching ability, but such is a blessing that many people lack. Many, many people struggle in nigh-slavery just to survive even in this land of (expensive) opportunity.
Your statement lacks the essential differentiation between Humans and People. Humans may have such freedom, but People do not.
