Travelers were left baffled after walking into a railway office to find a real-life monkey “working” behind the desk.
One customer captured the langur monkey sitting behind the desk in an office chair on video. The footage also showed the beast typing away on the keyboard and flipping through files.
People believe the new employee has learned the behaviour after watching the train staff hard at work. The monkey business was captured at Bolpur Shantiniketan railway station in Bengal, India.
A popular Instagram account shared the footage on September 14. They captioned the video “New Appointment in Railway service”.
People found the footage hilarious, as thousands took to the likes and comment section. One said: “And we were thinking AI will take our jobs away”.
Another added: “Leave my guy alone he’s just trying to pay taxes.” A third joked: “Before there was gender equality and now species equality. Our India is really great. Equality for everything.”
It comes after a rampaging monkey caused carnage at a supermarket in their hunt for bananas. The cheeky animals strayed from their natural foraging grounds in a nearby forest to raid a 7-11 and take whatever treats they could in Krabi province, Thailand on September 16.
