When Average Workdays Take a Turn For the Weird

Penguin Pain

I worked at an aquarium, and one time the penguin keeper needed help with a baby penguin, who was about the size of a cat. The penguin keeper’s hands were full, so it was my job to hold the baby penguin and make sure she didn’t get hurt while I went down this steep stairwell.

Then the keeper turns around and says, “Make sure you don’t let go of her neck, or she’ll rip your eyeball out in less than a second. Don’t be afraid of choking her, wring her neck out if you have to, it won’t hurt her and it’s just for the stairwell.”

She did indeed try her hardest to take my eye out, because I didn’t want to hurt her and was afraid of choking her. Then it became all out war…. Still have both eyes though. Also the penguin is still pecking away at that aquarium. Story credit: Reddit / DibsArchaeo
