If you have ever worked for a boss from China (and I have), you know the conversation:
Boss: WHERE TRAIN?
Me: THEY KEEP TRAIN!!
Boss: THEY NO KEEP TRAIN!! YOU GET TRAIN!!
Me: THEY HAVE GUN!
Boss: TAKE STICK, WAVE AROUND, GET TRAIN!! NO COME BACK NO TRAIN!!!!
I used to work for a Chinese woman. She spoke good English but when she got mad, she spoke like this.
Shades of John Pinnette and the Chinese buffet!
Thanks for the laugh! Could you imagine trying to explain to your boss that the crazy NK-ers kept the whole darn train!
LOL - the Iraqis talk kind of like that when they get all wound up about something. They get real emotional and start all this gesticulating. I sometimes have to bite my lip to keep from laughing.
