~ Randomly...

Just before the meeting...

boss: Wah! Why are you wearing so many balls today?
me: (make a DUH expression) What balls? It's called beads lah.
boss: But it's quite nice. Ya, beads. Not balls lah.
me: Ya! Sigh! Men!
boss: Ya, man. You can't live with them, you can't live without them.
me: No. Wrong. I can live without them.
boss: You ah, you are the kind of woman the government worries about lah.
me: Ay, ya leh! Really, I'm the kind of woman government worries about. Independent, financially independent, high educational qualification, not interested in marriage, not interested in dating...
boss: (shakes head, smiling)
me: Ok, enough. Let's get started.

During another meeting... Sok came in to serve some crackers with pate that Maria was preparing in the pantry...

boss: You see what Maria is doing? You should learn from her. How to prepare food and serve. The things that woman should do. Be more womanly.
me: Huh? For what? You want to eat, you don't know how to prepare yourself uh?! Why must a woman do all these?
boss: Sok Kuan, you must learn from Maria, don't learn from her.
Sok: If the man wants to eat, they should do it themselves.
boss: See, you teach her wrongly.
me: But it's true mah.
(high-5 with Sok)
me: Orh! Sok, if you think like this, you will grow to be like me. Another one that the government worries about.
Sok: Ya.
boss: Ya, another one the government worries about.
me: It's ok ah! Let the government worry lor. It's their job, anyway! To worry about us.
boss: (shakes head, again)
