So, as I mentioned in my last post, there are monkeys that are inhabiting the area around the SIT program center rooftop. Apparently this has been a problem for years, but only in the last two years has it gotten especially bad. So what do you do when your monkeys are too hot to handle? Why, you hire a BIGGER monkey of course!! Yes folks, SIT is hiring a man and his monkey to come chill on the roof so the monkey can beat his chest and hoot his claim to his territory. Apparently this is a fairly common (and cushy) job for a man and a monkey. They just hang around for a couple of months to ward off the other monkeys and get fed and paid pretty well. So soon I will get to actually meet a monkey, or rather, I will be formally introduced to one.
I told this to Sunita-ji and she proceeded to tell us how naughty monkeys (bandar) are. In the district she used to live in, there used to be a gang of about 20 of them that would terrorize the neighborhood, breaking into homes and raiding the fridge, throwing eggs and tomatoes all over the house and eating all of the sweets.
Oh what different lives we lead.
