Don’t Touch The Service Monkey
You know I want one.
While some folks get memos at work like this; at the pt job, we’ve been getting memos on “service monkeys”. The gist of the WORD is “NO monkeys in the house, AND if a situation ensues, call security.”
And if you travel with your monkey: From the TSA web-site:
- Since service monkeys may likely draw attention, the handler will be escorted to the physical inspection area where a table is available for the monkey to sit on. Only the handler will touch or interact with the service monkey.
- Security Officers have been trained to not touch the service monkey during the screening process.
