A new zookeeper turns up for his first day at the zoo and goes to the manager and asks what his first job of the day should be. The manager says that as it is his first day he will mainly be cleaning out some of the enclosures. He gives the new keeper a can of window cleaner and a cloth and tells him to go and clean the inside of the tank in which the rarest tropical fish were kept. So the new keeper walks over to the aquarium and finds the tank. He fills a second tank with warm water, fetches a net and catches each fish one by one and puts them into the second tank. Once all the fish have been transfered, he drains the main tank, hops in and starts cleaning it. After about 45mins the tank is sparkling, so he gets the hose and starts refilling the tank. Once its full he goes to the second tank he had put the fish in and to his horror he sees that every single fish is dead and floating on the top of the water.
"What am I going to do, its my first day and I've killed all the rare

tropical fish! I'll have to hide them! I know what I'll do! I'll feed them to the lions, lions will eat anything!"
So the new keeper put all the fish in a sack and takes them over to the lion enclosure, sure enough the lions eat every fish.
The new keeper calmly walks back to the managers office and says "I've done the fish tank, whats next?" So the manager gives him the next task of cleaning out the monkey enclosure.
The new keeper grabs a wheelbarrow and a spade and heads over to the monkey enclosure. Once he is inside he starts to scrape up all the monkey dung and put it in the wheelbarrow. The monkeys aren't very used to new people in there enclosure and start attacking the keeper, who starts swinging wildly at them with the spade. after a few minutes he looks around and sees that he has killed every single monkey.
"Oh no, now I've killed all the monkeys on my first day! I'll have to hide them! I know what I'll do! I'll feed them to the lions, lions will eat anything!".

So he puts all the limp bodies of the dead monkies in the wheelbarrow and puts them in the Lion enclosure. Sure enough the lions eat every single one.
The keeper walks calmly back over to the managers office and say "I've done the monkeys, whats next?"
The manager gives him his third task and sends him to the African Bee hives to collect their honey.
The new keeper puts on his protective suit and walks towards the hives to collect the honey. The bees start to attack him and a few of the stings pierce the suit and reach his skin underneath. So the keeper starts swattign the bees and clapping, sqaushing them in his hands. After about 45mins he looks round and sees that he has killed at least 200 bees.
"Oh no, I've killed so many bees and its only my first day, I'll have to hide them! I know what I'll do! I'll feed them to the lions, lions will eat anything!"
So he gathers up all the bees and takes them to the lion enclosure. Sure enough, the lions eat every single one.

Now later that day, the zoo had a new lion introduced to the park from a zoo 50 miles north. The lion walked straight into the shed where the other lions were lazing and introduces himself. After a while the new lion asks "Do you like living here, what is the food like?" to which another lion replied "Its great here, we had a real treat today, we had fish chimps and mushy bees!"
sorry it took so long to write.

The underlying meataphor is that we are all locked in the zoo of society, performing and feeling we need to be appreciated by others...Gouranga.....
