Joke? 
Last Friday, we are OT at office. I was in the same room with my team leader, a German with serious looking always on his face.
Then another German colleague came in to inform me about a very short but important meeting serveral minutes later.
"Is it proper to you?" He asked.
"No." I answered.
You can imagine the looking on his face regarding the attendance to the meeting held by our big boss is no doubt to be accepted.
"Pardon me?" Obviously, he was more willingly to believe there was something wrong with his ears.
"No." I answered again, briefly.
This time, my team leader looked up from his heavy work, staring at me, with surpriseness on his face too.
"No problem!" Within 1 second, they finally heard a different word.
But it is true but reasonable that I was tongue-shy when I got the message to have a meeting with big boss.  |
