In a recent GC gathering, I heard this really hilarious joke about a new colleague at G company. I asked one of my friends why her name was Tomato since her that’s not even her real english name and this was the reply

“I was going out for survey and going through all the sauces category and I kind of forgot one single category when she said, “what about the ter-mae-toe sauce?” and I said “WHAT? OH! You mean tomato sauce!”. You see, she used to study in Australia so she got this Australian slang where she pronouce tomato as ter-mae-toes so we mai call her Tomato lo”

I had a lot of complains about her and some of them were …

“I asked one of my supplier is she pretty or not. And you know what she said? She commented that if you were to give her 2 tight slaps on both her cheeks. You’ll have haze again (because she wears very thick makeup)”

But the ultimate joke of the day was her the fiasco she made in a company barbeque party. According to my friends, this was what happened. Narrated by my friend Ah Luan.

“You see, were were all very thirsty so we could not help ourselves by drinking a lot of coke. God knows what Tomato was thinking because she obviously must be thinking about us drinking alcohol. So guess what happened? Armed with 2 glasses of tonic, she drank and drank and drank. At first we all think why she so thirsty and thought she was drinking soft drink. But in the end, later we found out she had 24 glasses of tonic! And she was so drunk that she slept in front of the golf club entrance floor! We saw her on the floor and asked if she ok. So she said she’s alright and need to drive back home. Then suddenly she got up and saw the buggie (golf car) and ran towards the buggie shouting “That’s my car over there!”. We all said to her, “No, that’s not your car. That’s a golf car.” And she argued with all the bunch of us insisting that that golf car is her car and she even peered down the car to check the number plates!”

Goodness, I believe at the time she was drunk, she was not even 1 month old in that company. I wonder what does youngster’s nowadays really think of themselves getting to all this tight spots when there goes her image.
