I am a doctor
One fine day while in my office working(I work in a private school), this student from China suddenly came in and said she was sick.This conversation is all in Chinese.
She: Doctor, I am not feeling well.
Me: I am not a doctor.
She: Then where is the doctor? I am really not feeling well and need to see one.
Me: There is no doctor here.
She: How come hospital got no doctor?
Me: This is not a hospital. This is a school.
She: But how come outside the signboard says that this place is a hospital?
Me: Which sign? There is definitely no sign that suggests that this place is a hospital.
She: Come, I show you.
With that, I followed her out of my office to the sign which she was referring to. There was indeed a sign.
The sign reads:
SCHOOL D' HOSPITALITY
It was from that day onwards I understood why the China students in my school always seem to be so polite upon seeing me. They must have thought that I am a doctor who practises in this school.
Maybe I should put another notice round the school informing them that SCHOOL D' HOSPITALITY is NOT equal to HOSPITAL OF THE SCHOOL.
