Second great unknown line of April

The workplace is a great source of great unknown lines, as I discovered again today. One of my colleagues had to ask me to do some quick work I am not paid for and have little time to do. She is a very nice, friendly colleague and knows how to sugarcoat her request, so before asking me, she said: "Guillaume, you are the best Canadian in this department". To which I replied: "Good to know, as I am the only Canadian in this department." Which is funny, but not quite true: I am not really Canadian.

Don't you just love compliments like this...that may not really be compliments? People never cease to amaze!
