Never ever use abusive words, especially if you have a parrot at home, for this can cost you your business!

According to The Mirror, Floyd, a six-year-old African Grey, reportedly learned to curse from every day rows between his owner Steve Chapman and his wife.

The parrot, who seems to have taken a fancy for the F-words, is now posing a big threat to Steve's business of computer repair.

"He uses every expletive under the sun. He swears most when I am on the phone or dealing with customers," a worried Steve was quoted as saying.

"Parrots can live until they are 60 or 70, So, I guess I'm stuck with him for the rest of my life," he added.
