The Parrot

A man walks into a pet shop to buy a parrot. There are 3 in the shop. The man points to the best looking one, with beautiful plumage in very attractive colours and asks: "How much is this one?" he asked. "€ 500." said the owner. "That's rather expensive for a bird." The man says. "Ah, this one speaks good English" "Well, it's too much for me." He points to the 2nd one, a little smaller, not as brilliant and colourful as the other. "How much is this one then?" "€ 1,000" says the owner. "But he is smaller and not as pretty, yet he costs more?" "This one speaks Spanish as well as English though." says the proud owner. The man is impressed but definitely can't afford that one, so he looked at the last one; small, scrawny, scruffy looking with rather dull and uninteresting colours. Not at all what he would like but, out of curiosity he asked the price of this one too. "This one is €1,500" says the owner. "What? The smallest and the least attractive one costs so much more? How many languages does he speak?" he asks. "No idea. I have never heard him utter a word." said the owner, "But the other 2, one calls him Master and the other calls him Boss." Don't ever judge anyone by appearance. Tag:parrotboss
