due to me not having enough time for him anymore, I've decided it was time for him to have a new home with someone, who can give him the love and attention he deserves. He is a Congo African Grey, He talks, some of the phrases he says are

"Good morning" says it first thing in the morning when you wake him up.

"George" says his name.

"Want a bath" every time you spray him or wants you to spray him.

"Hello"

"Won't be long" when you're about to leave the room or house

"Dancing" rarely

"come on"

"yoooooooo"

"meow"

"what"

"you what"

and makes a lot of sound effect sounds.

Knows two swears sadly. "F you" which he says if you annoy him or force him to do something and "f'ing rats" which he says once in a blue moon"

George loves spending time outside his cage and exploring the house. He also dances to music or if you sing to him he's sing back. George loves eating fruits you give him and nuts. He likes to get his head scratched and allows you to pet him.

AutoCAD Monkey

A tourist walked into a pet shop and was looking at the animals on display. While he was there, another customer walked in and said to the shopkeeper, "I'll have an AutoCAD monkey please." The shopkeeper nodded, went over to a cage at the side of the shop and took out a monkey. He fitted a collar and leash, handed it to the customer, saying, "That'll be $5000." The customer paid and walked out with his monkey.

Startled, the tourist went over to the shopkeeper and said, "That was a very expensive monkey. Most of them are only few hundred dollars. Why did that one cost so much?"

The Shopkeeper answered, "Ah, that monkey can draw in AutoCAD - very fast, clear layouts, no mistakes, well worth the money."

The tourist looked at a monkey in another cage. "That one's even more expensive! $10,000! What does it do?"

"Oh, that one's a Design monkey; it can design systems, layout projects, mark-up drawings, write specifications, some even calculate. All the really useful stuff," said the shopkeeper.

The tourist looked around for a little longer and saw a third monkey in its own cage. The price tag around its neck read $50,000. He gasped to the shopkeeper, "That one costs more than all the others put together! What on earth does it do?"

The shopkeeper replied, "Well, I haven't actually seen it do anything, but it says it's an Engineer."

Road maintenance engineer?

Heavy equipment engineer?

Other version of the same joke calls for a project manager rather than engineer. That does make more sense.
