First day of work in the kiasu land country.
It wasnt too bad. At first. Everyone was so friendly. Took me out for lunch. Smiled and made small talk.
Until I met this typical kiasu of the kiasu. I was instructed by the manager to go see this person X (really... I forgot his name). I was to ask him about a certain document that he might have had.
X: WHY?
me: Because manager Y asked me to ask you whether you have or not.
X: WHY?
me: Because manager Y wants me to raise queries for this client.
X: DIS WAN VERY HARD ONE.
me: Oh is it? How hard? <me acting dumb>
X: VELI HARD ONE.
What the hell?
