Damn you cashier and your bad english





Jonas went of to the store to purchase some grocery's(bred, juice, cookies, cream, egg, muesli, rolls, cheese and chocolate sauce), beer and tobacco . When he had paid for his cigarettes he showed the cashier a note, saying: Installate vullen en ontiuchten and asked him if he could help him translate it for him. The cashier looked at the note and said; Yeah, he started to read aloud. But he stumbled on the last word. Gave it a new go, but failed again. He look around for someone to help him and spotted the girl gathering baskets and had her have a look at the note as well. She just laughed. The cashier excused himself and ran over to the grocery-register's and Jonas could see from were he was standing how the cashier asked another cashier and then he ran all the way back, caught his breath and once again began to read aloud and discovered that the word the other cashier had told him could not be right. He excused himself again and ran of, out of Jonas sight. Some time later he came back and for the third time read the note aloud and this time he got it right. The he said in English; Yeah, you have to install and fill. The.. ehh... what do you say. With the air, you know.. the air thing. Jonas got home, no more knowledgeable than when he left.







Later.

VENT! It means vent. Install fill and vent. Is the direct translation. Install the vent and fill it with ..? Bananas? Fuck this . We will have to live like Eskimos.
