#3 The parrot repeated a tune after hearing it only once? That bird must be a lot smarter than any of my parrots.

#3, your boss should have been happy, there's worse things a parrot may repeat than that song, lol >:) . #5 he didn't say that he only whistled it once, he probably had it stuck in his head for few days and whistled it every time he cleaned the back rooms, just guessing lol...

#6 Well since he clearly didn't say "every single time while I was cleaning up the back room I was whistling the tune" , it indicated that it just happened one time to me. :D
Well Herr sizzlik ,which is it ?

#6 #7 Well, youre both right. Comment unclear..Parrot deaf

So..to solve the mystery..Storytime

Once upon a time..litle me had a crappy teen job at a small Petstore.
I hated that job, but better then nothing. So my mood at work wasnt the best sometimes.
One day "Life of Brian" was on tv the night before..love Monty Pyhton..so i had an earworm(?) of the whistling.
That day i noticed that my mood got better when whistling..and since the lyrics kinda match the situation it became a habbit to whistle that tune when i had work to do thats boring or annoying. Like cleaning the back rooms..wich means clean all bird cages. So the parrot heared the tune a few times during the day (maybe 2-4 times)..on several days..not repeaded every day.
Dont know how long it took him to copy. Just one day he suddenly did it. And the whistling wasnt new, he did single whistle sounds already before. He just copyed the tune.
I think he also trolled the other birds, because he copied some bird sounds too.
He also picked up some words. "Hallo" he repeated often..guess because everybody replied hallo back =P ..and "Markus" the name of my boss.
(He made the desicion to upen up a petstore when his dog died, he never got a new dog. There must be logic..somewhere..)
Because every morning his wife came by to pick up deliverys, and she just screamed his name into the store (before opening hours ofc), so he brings the stuff to deliver. I think his wife was a ghost. Sometimes i saw something..like a shadow..but there was always this voice.
Dont know what type of parrot that was. Old big grey one.

I felt sorry for the lone soul. Standing on guard day in day out. Unsure about the future.
Not knowing if someone would ever find him and pick him up. Probably not. Too old. Dont move. Blend into surrounding. Activate sound distraction.
A few month later little me got a better paid job at a new build fastfood restaurant (The big M Woohoo)
and never had to clean stinky bird cages ever again. My mind was at ease. Now i had to clean restrooms.
And of course they all lived happily ever after.

And that my friends, was the tale of little me and the lonly old parrot from Fressnapf Backroom 1 whistled our song of hope for better times.

Hope I did not forgot an important detail and that we all will sleep well tonight =)


Tune in next week for "The tale of the big M"

Loved reading your story Sizzlik, thank you for sharing, looking forward to the next one. Glad the argument was clarified and we both won. :) (Oh btw, ear worm does not exist in English, I recently used it too and no one knew what I meant and I had to explain)
