A distant relative called mom yesterday...
... somewhere in the conversation ...
Relative: Where is your girl working now?
Mom: She is working in Microsoft now. Been there for two months already.
Relative: Aiyo! How can her company do such a thing?
Mom: What?
Relative: Simply take Microsoft's name lah. You know it is illegal to take other company's name as your own company name?
Mom: She is working in THE Microsoft lah.
Relative: You don't bluff ok?!
Mom: Tsk! She is going to Singapore and US soon lah.
Relative: Impossible lah. In Malaysia where got Microsoft?
Mom: She is working in Microsoft lah!!! The Bill Gates Company!!!
I later had to take over the phone to explain to my poor relative. *Hmm... Do I look so incapable in her eyes ah?*
