joke de jour

A bloke starts his new job at the zoo and is given three tasks.
The first is to clear the exotic fish pool of weeds. He starts on this
when suddenly a huge fish leaps out and bites him. He is not going to let
a fish have a go so he beats the offending fish to death with a spade.

Realising that his boss is not going to be best pleased, he tries to find
a way to hide the dead fish. He hits on the brilliant idea of giving the
fish to the lions as lions will eat anything. So he throws the fish into
the lion's cage.

He then moves on to his second job, which is to clear out the monkey house.
He goes in and a couple of chimps starts throwing coconuts at him. Not amused,
he swipes at the chimps with his spade, killing them instantly. He's really
worried now, so what does he do? He feeds the chimps to the lions, because
lions eat anything. He hurls them into the lion's cage.

Anyway, he moves on to his last job, which is to collect honey from South
American bees. He starts on this and quickly gets attacked by the bees.
Alarmed, he grabs his spade and smashes the bees as hard as he can, squashing them
to death. By this point he is not too worried about the death of bees as
he knows what to do by now. He throws them into the lion's cage, because
lions eat anything.

Later that day a new lion arrives at the zoo. He wanders up to another
lion and says "What's the food like in here?". The other lion says:
"Absolutely brilliant, today we had Fish, Chimps and Mushy Bees
