I laughed about this for an hour.... Every morning, as I get to work; I'm greeted by the groundskeeper who is this little 60 year-old man (though he looks 80). Every morning, I say 'Bonjour', and he says something back, and I say 'Oui, d'accord' (Yes, ok) So finally I ask my interpreter, what he is saying every morning.
T'shikala: He says to give him money.
Me: What, THAT's what he says every morning (now realizing the error of my response!)
T'shikala: Yes, and your cowboy hat.
Me: What, is he going to rob me? [laughing]
T'shikala: He says you have more.
Me: [joking] Tell him I can't, my wife spends it all!
T'shikala: He says ok, tell your wife to send him money!
***For having the best comeback ever, I'm sending him a cowboy hat!
