No monkey has a manager. No monkey has been promoted. No monkey has been let go. The howler monkey wakes up, eats some leaves, howls for an hour or so, and then sits in a tree.
Biologists call this energy conservation. The howler monkey calls it Tuesday.
Somewhere along the way, our species decided that being awake meant being useful, and that being useful meant being paid, and that being paid meant we could finally rest. The howler skipped the middle parts.
He is not behind on anything.
