A man walks into a pet store and is looking around when he
spots a Chimpanzee in a cage marked, "$1000".
The
man looks a little closer and discovers that the chimpanzee
is wearing a T-shirt bearing the
Maltese Cross and is cleaning a fog nozzle.
Curious about
this, the man summons the storekeeper and asks him what the
deal is with this thousand dollar monkey.
"Sir, You
have discovered our Fire Service Monkeys".



This one is our Firefighter version.
It has a Basic
Firefighters certification with IFSAC seals, is also a
Licensed Paramedic, can perform vehicle extrications, high
angle rescue and is up to date on current CPR standards.
A
very good value for a thousand dollars.




The man is suitably impressed and moves to the next cage,
which is occupied by a gorilla - also wearing the same
T-shirt, but is gnawing on a pen and reading training
manuals.




The storekeeper states, "Sir, You have discovered the
Captain model.
This one has an Advanced Firefighter
certification, is capable of training the other monkeys in
basic firefighting skills, and can manage any emergency
scene. It can also type.
A very good value for five-
thousand, Sir.
"



Impressed, the man moves to the last cage.
Inside, he finds
an orangutan, dressed in a white shirt and a tie, but
holding only a coffee cup.
The man says, "What does
this one do that he's worth $10,000 ?"


The storekeeper clears his throat and says, "Ah, sir,
well, um.
we have never actually seen him do anything except
drink coffee and play with himself, but he says he's a
Battalion Chief.
"
