Jan’s first lesson

Recently, my colleague Wilson hired a new engineer from Singapore. It was a she, a middle aged housewife (let’s call her Jan for the sake of convenience). And for the past few days, Wilson had her stationed inside my lab for a few lessons about figuring out problems that adult computer users have.

But Jan’s a smart lady and could pick up her skills real fast. Since we have plenty of time left after lessons, we began to chat about our geological differences.

Jan : My husband’s from Terengganu.

Me : Cool. I’ve been to Terengganu once. Redang Island.

Jan : Oh, that’s the only place Terengganu is famous for, right ? Most people been to Redang.

Me : Yep. Redang’s a nice place.

Jan : You ever seen any turtles laying eggs there ?

Me : What ? Turtles ? Laying eggs ? I see plenty of chicks there but no turtles.

Jan : I thought it’s one of the attractions there to see turtles laying it’s eggs.

Me : U see .. those bastards weren’t just looking. They took the eggs as well.

Jan : Oh, is that so ? Never knew that …

Me : When those turtles figured out that their eggs have been stolen, they became pissed off and never came back. Moreover, I doubt the turtles will feel comfortable with so many pairs of eyes looking at it’s posterior while she’s laying her eggs. It’s so unnatural.

Jan : And how did u know that ?

Me : Well, will you feel comfortable with approximately 20 animals from different species witnessing yourself giving birth to your child ?

Jan : Ok. I think I got your point now.

I’m smart.
