Animal world of IT Consultants

A couple 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 that cat please''.

The shopkeeper nodded, went over to a cage at the side of the shop, and took out a cat.
He fit a collar and leash and handed it to the customer, saying, ''That'll be $1000''.

The customer paid and walked out with his cat. Startled, the couple went over to the shopkeeper and said, ''That was a very expensive cat. Most of them are only a few hundred dollars. Why did that one cost so much?''

The shopkeeper answered,
''Ah, that cat can program in 'ABAP' very fast, very very tight codes, no bugs, no Abap dumps and  well worth the money.''

The couple looked at a dog in another cage. ''That one's even more expensive - $10,000! What does he do?''

''Oh, that one's another excellent programmer; he can manage object-oriented programming, C++ and even some Java. All the really useful "in-stuff,'' said the shopkeeper.

The couple looked around for a little longer and saw a monkey in a cage of his own. The price tag around his neck read $25,000. They both gasped to the shopkeeper, ''That one costs more than all the others put together! What on earth does he do?''

The shopkeeper shrugged and said,
''Well, to tell you the truth, I haven't actually seen him do anything, but he says he's a SAP consultant.''
