Stupid customs and witty man Bashny.Net

It's sometimes more useful to keep his mouth shut, especially if you are dealing with the older generation. A little more respect, sir! The website has in store for the reader a great anecdote on this subject.



In the French airport Charles-de-Gaulle flew a group of older teachers from America. Among them were Charles white. It is quite a long time rummaging in my bag trying to find my passport. The officer, seeing the awkwardness of an old man, sarcastically asked him:

— Have you already been in France, Monsieur?

— Yes, there are, trying to hide the awkwardness and nodded to the man.

— Well, then you probably know that at customs, you need to prepare your passport?

"You know," said the American, when I was last here, nobody asked me the documents.

— It's impossible. Americans always have to show your passports, coming to France!

What Charles white eyed companion a long look, and said:

— Son, when I landed on the shore of Omaha beach in D-day in 1944 to help liberate your country, I have not met a single Frenchman to show his passport.
