He was a young boy in his teens and had just came over from Scotland. He went to the Human Resources office to fill out an application and found a very lovely young girl. She handed him the application and a pencil and he started filling it out. Not quite yet accustomed to how the date is written in the US, he filled out the date as he knew. Realizing he had made a mistake he found the young HR lady and then asked her for a rubber. A look of disgust and embarrassment came over the young girl’s face as it turned bright red. She flashed him a mean look and stormed out. The Scotsman, slightly intimidated by the good looking girl, had no clue what he said. A few minutes later, in walks the manager with the girl lingering in the back. He asked the Scotsman, may I help you? Yes please, I made a mistake filling out my application and need a rubber to correct it. The manager who finally pieces together what the young boy needed, replies with ohhhh…in this country, a rubber is called a condom. The Scotsman looks at the manager and says well, then can I have a condom?
True story.
