Saxonia meets Korean … 
My office is still in need of more furniture. However, now that I have managed to get a multi-function printer with fax I can at least do most of my work now. Yesterday I wanted to buy some more stuff for my office, like paper and pens. Conveniently located in our building is an Alpha store. It has most of what you need and we get reasonable prices and discounts. One specific pen I needed I could not find, so I asked the clerk to help me. He quickly found it and let me try one on those try-out strips you also find in paper and pen stores. I said OK and went back to the counter to pay. The clerk followed me and had five of those pens in its hand. I was wondering why and it took me half a day to realize, I had said
"Ohhgei", which happens sometimes and is the result of having lived in South-East Germany for a while. For those wondering,
"오게" (o-gae) means 5 pieces in Korean.
Watch you language …
