Got in tonight in Santa Clara around 8pm. Managed to sleep a bit on the plane.<\/p>\n
Some funny language issues stories…<\/p>\n
Yesterday I went to lunch at Mos Burger and when I came up to order there was a big commotion while they dug out the English menu, and got the cashier who can speak English out from the back. I stood there waiting for them to sort things out and then ordered in Chinese. For some reason I find this amusing.<\/p>\n
On the plane, the guy sitting next to me was Thai but the flight attendants kept trying to talk to him in Chinese. I thought about answering back to them “\u00e4\u00bb\u2013\u00e6\u02dc\u00af\u00e6\u00b3\u00b0\u00e5\u0153\u2039\u00e4\u00ba\u00ba.\u00e4\u00bb\u2013\u00e4\u00b8\u008d\u00e6\u0153\u0192\u00e8\u00aa\u00aa\u00e5\u0153\u2039\u00e8\u00aa\u017e.” but this time I kept quiet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
