Waiters monkey around with customers

A tavern in Japan is using a pair of waiters who work for far less than minimum wage.

Monkeys Yat-chan and Fuku-chan serve patrons at the tavern just north of Tokyo, called Kayabukia. Fuku-chan, 4, begins the first shift by handing customers a hot towel before they order their drinks.

Customers tip the monkey-waiters with boiled soya-beans which they eat when they get a break.

I wonder if the next generation of cell phones will include a tip calculator for monkeys.

Watch the two in action below…
