Office Joke

A tourist walked into a pet shop and was looking at the animals on display.

While he was there, another customer walked in and went over to a cage at the side of the shop and took out a monkey.

He fit a collar and leash, handed it to the customer, saying, 'Thatll be $5000.'

The customer paid and walked out with his monkey. Startled, the tourist went over to the shopkeeper and said, 'That was a very expensive monkey. Most of them are only a few hundred dollars. Why did it cost so much?'

The shopkeeper answered, 'Ah, that monkey can program in C - very fast, tight code, no bugs, well worth the money.'

The tourist looked at the monkey in another cage. 'That ones even more expensive - $10,000! What does it do?' 'Oh, that ones a C++ monkey; it can manage object-oriented programming, Visual C++, even some Java. All the really useful stuff,' said the shopkeeper.

The tourist looked around for a little longer and saw a third monkey in a cage of its own. The price tag around its neck read $50,000.

He gasped to the shopkeeper, 'That one costs more than all the others put together! What on earth does it do?'

The shopkeeper replied, 'Well, I havent actually seen it do anything, but rest of the monkeys call it the Project Manager.'"
