Can you take a photograph of my motorcycle, please?
I går var det en østeuropeer innom jobben. På en merkelig engelsk forsøkte han å spørre meg:
Motorsykkelmann: – Can you take photograph of my motorcycle? One in colour, and one in black and white?
Brille: – Are you thinking about taking a photograph of your motorcycle in our studio?
Motorsykkelmann: – Yes, please.
Brille: – It’s only one problem. Our studio is located in the basement, and I don’t think we can drive the motorcycle down the stairs.
Motorsykkelmann: – Oh, that’s not problem. I’ve done it many times before.
Brille (som nå begynner å lure på hva for en kunde dette er): – But I’m not shure if the stairs will hold the weigth of the motorcycle.
Motorsykkelmann: – Is it cheap stairs?
Brille: – I don’t know what it cost, but it’s not built to barry a motorcycle. But in which size do you want the photograph?
Motorsykkelmann: – In passportsize, please.
For å gjøre en lang historie kort, etter mye om og men og kreative ideer for å få ned motorsykkelen, viste det seg at han skulle ha et bilde til førerkortet. Trafikkstasjonen må være et morsomt sted å jobbe…
