He's hired.
that fills the skills shortage.

I watched a tv shows on apes a few weeks ago and a big feller had a collection of tools he was using for different tasks like breaking open coconuts.
I was fascinated, an ape with his own tool box. the tools were either stone or stick - perhaps the sticks were snap-on

You wont catch a millennial able to do that. lol.

I think he was one of my training officers on the police department many years ago......

I like where the monkey looks up at the human as if to say "don't you get it??"

Maybe it is also...''reverse'' video ?!!
