"So this is what becomes of volunteers who extend their service for a third year of swingin' good times here?"
| |
"The only one swinging from vines in Africa are PCVs who have been in the bush too long!"
| |
"So after Peace Corps, is this how you become a branch manager?"
| |
If volunteers are depending on wildlife to share food with them, then maybe we should really consider raising the their living allowance.
| |
I heard about so many volunteers making lifelong friends in their villages, even marrying . . . but no one warned me about going on a blind date.
| |
So Mr. Wise Monkey, "Why does this banana curve backwards?"
| |
Furthermore, if you ever expect to survive in this jungle, you'd better learn to eat with one hand.
| |
"It takes one to know one" says one volunteer to another who has gone completely "native".
| |
Back at post and broke, PCV Sparky tries hard to remember Grandma Joe's recipe for Chimp ala Congolese.
| |
Hmm, roasted monkey might go pretty good with this banana.
| |
Oh,how I wish I had learned to speak monkey during training.
| |
Look at it this way, you are about to enjoy one of the bananas that I export to the USA.
| |
What are you looking at Ape face? Who said that?
| |
What exhauts ecology PCVs more: counting cut trees or monkeys per square mile?
| |
what do you mean you don't need my help?
| |
I just never thought there would be this much hanging around
| |
This is the volunteer Im replacing?
| |
I appreciate your trying to communicate at our level instead of looking down on us all the time.
| |
I always thought that it was the right hand for eating! I should've paid more attention in Cross Culture class.
| |
Then one day as Frank was peeling his banana, it dawned upon him: After two years in the Peace Corps, Mildred, the Spider Monkey, was lookin' pretty damn good."
| |
Wow, if this is my new manager, life really stinks!
| |
Well,(sigh) I guess I'll see you at work tomorrow. Thanks for the banana.
