Captain Leo Davidson: Never send a monkey to do a man's job.
Planet of the Apes (2001)
In the movie, the Captain quite literally meant what he was saying. Now it's a throw-away phrase people use in disgust when the wrong person was sent to accomplish a task.
Here are some other advice quotes of the same vein:
"Never argue with people who buy ink by the gallon." ~~Tommy Lasorda
"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." ~~Napoleon Bonaparte
"Never laugh at live dragons." ~~J.R.R. Tolkien
"Never let your sense of morals get in the way of doing what's right." ~~Isaac Asimov
"Never, ever put an electrical device in your pants." ~~Tim Allen on Home Improvement

It's someones way of calling you an idiot (ie, that you have the mental capacity of a monkey) I would punch him one in the throat if I were you! Even if he is your boss!
