When I was a zookeeper, I hitched a ride with some fellow keepers who neglected to tell me that the back part of the truck where I was going to be riding had just been relieved of a big load of elephant shit until after I'd gotten in and the truck was already moving. They nearly bust a gut laughing. Elephant keepers don't have much of a social life. Except with other elephant keepers maybe. Of course, my clothes perpetually stunk of fox and bobcat shit back then, so I didn't have much of a social life either (except with other zookeepers).
