The first job of the zookeeper was pretty good. I liked all the animals. When they were picking up the poo it was not that interesting. Once you have seen one poo pick up you have seen them all. I liked the tigers and lions feeding though. Next was the Cheese-makers. It was great. It was very interesting and Mike made it pretty funny to. But their seemed like there was a lot of waiting, which was probably boring for Mike, but then it started to pick up. After that the next job was volcanic ash mud bath mixer. It was pretty interesting.

Overall this was a great episode.moreless
